<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nSingle: Compton featuring Dr. Dre
\nArtist: Kendrick Lamar
\nReleased: October 1st, 2012<\/p>\n
Straight outta Compton! <\/p>\n
As we approach the much anticipated release date for Kendrick Lamar\u2019s<\/strong> label debut, the west coast lyricist teams up with Dr. Dre<\/strong> and brings us the single that pays homage to the city that bred them, \u201cCompton\u201d<\/em>. <\/p>\n The Just Blaze<\/strong> produced track finds both rappers proudly representing \u201cHub City\u201d in a very victorious manner- filled with percussion, slight auto-tune, and a hint of soul in it\u2018s loop. <\/p>\n With the west coast and hip hop naturally being placed upon his shoulders, K.Dot<\/strong> holds the given torch (recall 2011\u2019s Music Box performance) with tight grip as he drops in the first verse \u201c\u2026this is King Kendrick Lamar, King Kendrick, and I meant it\u2026\u201d.<\/em> Dre<\/strong> plays mary-go-round, dropping lines between his love and loyalty for his hometown, accomplishments, and even gives a quick shout out to the departed \u201c\u20262pac and Left-Eye, Eazy, and Aaliyah when I see ya\u2019 , we gonn\u2019 test drive\u201d<\/em>, allowing it all to come full circle. <\/p>\n The hint of heavenly, Nate Dogg reminiscent, vocals reciting \u201cCompton\u201d<\/em> gives the single that ultimate west coast familiarity which brings us right on home. <\/p>\n Kendrick Lamar\u2019s good kid, m.A.A.d. city releases October 22nd. Make sure you stay on the look out for that! Pre-order is now available on iTunes here<\/a>. <\/p>\n Mock my words, this is bound to be a classic! <\/p>\n But in the meantime, Listen to \u201cCompton\u201d<\/em>, and keep this on rotation as we wait. <\/p>\n TDE, -Stace Fresh<\/p>\n
