“I always say, ‘If I played in the NBA, I’d lead the league in assists,'” he says. “My idols are people like Clarence Avant.” One hundred percent, man. That’s been a huge challenge of mine since day one. Not being a caricature of yourself. You see it in other people, and you don’t want it to be you. I just challenge myself every day to show up as Lenard McKelvey. Understanding that Charlamagne Tha God isn’t another person, it’s just the fly nickname that I created.

The more I listen to “Euphoria,” I’m like, “He really broke him down psychologically. Kendrick hit him with a back-to-back with the timestamp record. Drake hit him with “Family Matters.” That’s when Kendrick came with “Meet the Grahams.”He gave “Family Matters” no time to breathe.
Cole knew he was lying . Cole ain’t mean none of what he said about Kendrick, because it’s not true. All Kendrick is is his catalog. Literally, that’s the only reason Kendrick Lamar is Kendrick Lamar is music. That’s why we love Kendrick Lamar. We don’t know him personally.
