Kendrick Lamar isn’t always attacking cultural appropriation. He’s a bit of a jokester if you didn’t know.

Can we please, […]
Another holdover while we wait for Rock’s album Of the four members of Black Hippy, Jay Rock is experiencing the longest layover in between albums, as his last effort, Follow Me Home, was released in July of 2011.
