Kendrick Lamar is in the midst of his Big Steppers Tour, and the reviews for the show have been amazing.
Kendrick spared no expense in creating striking visuals – where the Compton artist performs all his biggest hits. Kendrick’s performances are so powerful that – in one video – he even made a security guard cry.
On Saturday, Kendrick brought his talents to Brooklyn. And after performing a sold-out show at Barclays Center, the Mr. Morale rapper did a private show for none other than Jay-Z and Beyoncé.
Kendrick joined the Carters at Dumbo House, a private members-only club in Brooklyn. His cousin Baby Keem, his manager Dave Free, and pgLang signee Tanna Leone were also in attendance.
At one point, Lamar got on the mic and did a set with a keyboardist and bass player.
Dave Free posted an Instagram Story of the intimate performance, and showed the rapper performing “The Heart Part 5,” the single which preluded his newest album. In the video, Kendrick thanks Jay-Z for letting him use the line “I do this for my culture,” a quote from Hov’s “Izzo (H.O.V.A.),” without making him pay. “Hov, good looking out for clearing that muthafking line,” Lamar said to Jay. “You ain’t never charged me for no muthafking line, dog. I really appreciate that s**t.”
