Kendrick Lamar has been doing big things with his single “Alright”. You know it is pretty big when Cincinnati students chant it. However, even legendary hip hop artists respect the cut. Last night, Kendrick Lamar headlined Osheaga Festival in Montreal, and Yaasin Bey (aka Mos Def) just happens to drop by for a brief part in “Alright”. According to Hypetrak, Bey was watching Kendrick perform on stage, and K.Dot tells the audience that Mos Def was the reason why he started rapping. Pigeons & Planes caught a clip of the performance.
Kendrick also performed his verse of “F*ckin’ Problem” over a beat similar to Dr. Dre’s “Xxplosive”. Check it out below.
