Marianna Evans aka Rapsody had an interview with XXL where she talked a little about Kendrick Lamar. “I just think it’s the type of person he is and the type of music he makes, musically he’s very honest. He’s not apologetic in what he does. You can see how much energy and time he’s put into his craft and perfecting it. And just the execution of it and the emotion, that really comes through in his music. Coupled with the honesty. People get attached to that. It’s not fake. It’s not fluff. It’s real. He’s the type of artist who gives me the type of feeling like when I first heard Lauryn Hill, [they have] that same energy and spirit about them. That’s what I would think it is.” Rapsody said.
