Kendrick Lamar At Palms Casino Resort

Quincy Jones and Kendrick Lamar got together and discussed their musical inspirations: “We went through 800 songs,” Jones says, “’cause I learned 50 years ago that a great song can make the worst singer a star and a bad song cannot be saved by the three best singers in the world. So we went through 800 for Michael. We got a great singer. He’s got a great song. It’s over “You don’t go for money or fame, ’cause if you do the shit that moves you, it’s gonna happen,” he says. “Music will never be more or less than you are as a human being, ’cause you get back what you give.”
