Kendrick Lamar Speaks At Compton College
Kendrick, a Compton native and special guest at the ceremony, praised the city and the students in his remarks.
“Seeing y’all out here, it’s not only a representation of the world, but it’s a representation of me. When I walk out in these cities, in these countries, I can be proud and say, ‘This is where I’m from.’ I still believe in Compton — Compton always been the future for me. I think we breed some of the most incredible individuals: creatives, intellectuals, talent. We had it since day one, that’s why I always scream this city. I traveled the world; there’s no place like this one right here. No place,” Kendrick said.
According to HipHopDX, the ‘Not Like Us’ rapper went on to commend Gen Z for being independent thinkers, regardless of what the world says.
“And I still believe in everything we’re doing, brick by brick, I still believe. It’s time that we change the narratives. Some people tell us this generation don’t have what it takes. Gen Z — we talk about it all day. They try to pull us down and say we don’t know what we’re doing. They wrong though. You know why? Because not only do y’all have what it takes, y’all have something bigger. Y’all have the heart, y’all have the courage to be independent thinkers, there’s nothing more valuable than that,” Kendrick explained.
K.Dot continued to emphasize to the 2024 graduates their degree holds just as much value as any other college degree.
“This degree that y’all have right here is just as big as any degree. I don’t care what school, I don’t care what institution. This Compton degree is just as big. Now it’s all about taking these resources and taking what you learned and applying them. It’s as simple as that.”
