“Music was just played all around me, and I couldn't run from it. My pops, he never learned to sing, but he'd have his little drink on the side, and he'd put on the best of his hits - gangster rap or oldies - and he'd sing all day on his mic plugged up to the wall set-up.

And it's something I took on to have as a hobby.” LittlesWholeRunningSidesWallDrinkPopsRapWhole LifeHobbiesGangstersMicsOldiesGangster Rap Author:Kendrick Lamar
