Billboard Cover: Kendrick Lamar

K. Dot is on the cover of the newest issue of Billboard! As the story follows, “Kendrick Lamar is wearing black sandals and white socks. It’s not a look that you associate with rappers — or with anyone, really, except possibly Alpine butterfly hunters. And yet here is Lamar, striding socks-and-sandals-first through a studio that sprawls across the second floor of a funkily dilapidated warehouse building just east of downtown Los Angeles.”
