Kendrick Lamars journey in to the media eye has been nothing but straight up the last couple of years. His latest album good kid, m.A.A.d city has sold gold across the US and his efforts here over seas in Europe has not gone unnoticed. All upcoming shows in Sweden have now sold out, weeks in advance. This goes to show the magnitude of interest for such a growing artist. Hope we’ll see you there for an amazing stage performance!
