Kendrick Lamar – ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Performance
Mar 29th
You know you’ve got something special when your album is so good that people listen to it 5 months after its initial release, Jay-Z blesses your hit track with a remix, and even the producers of national late night shows can’t deny your universal appeal. Such is the case with Kendrick Lamar, who after performances on Conan, Jimmy Fallon, and David Letterman, performs live versions of “B*tch, Don’t Kill My Vibe” and “Poetic Justice” on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Though for obvious reasons, these versions of the songs are censored, a jazzy back-up band adds a nice sonic flair to these renditions.

Mar 29th
After Cudi tore down the stage earlier this week, Kendrick Lamar was the latest rapper to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Last night, the Compton MC performed “Poetic Justice” on the ABC show.
Kendrick was backed by a live band, including Terrace Martin on the saxophone, as he performed the latest single from his critically acclaimed good kid, M.A.A.D city album. The live rendition of the Scoop DeVille produced, Janet Jackson sampling tune sounded pretty tight. Drake was nowhere to be found, though.
Recently, the TDE rapper dropped a remix to Awolnation’s “Sail” featuring his buddy Ab-Soul. There is also the “B-tch Don’t Kill My Vibe (Remix),” featuring Jay-Z that has sparked many “Who had the best verse?” debates. Interestingly, Chris Brown recently revealed that he has already collaborated with the “Swimming Pools (Drank)” rapper, too.
