Kendrick Lamar was recently named the rapper of the year by GQ Magazine. During his shoot with the magazine K. Dot decided to bless them with a short freestyle to cement his newest accolade.

Besides the freestyle Kendrick also spoke on one of the moments that molded his career, seeing a vision of Tupac. “I was coming from a late studio session, sleeping on Mom's couch. I'm 26 now—it wasn't that long ago. I remember being tired, tripping from the studio, lying down, and falling into a deep sleep and seeing a vision of Pac talking to me. Weirdest shit ever. I'm not huge on superstition and all that shit. That's what made it so crazy. It can make you go nuts. Hearing somebody that you looked up to for years saying, 'Don't let the music die.' Hearing it clear as day. Clear as day. Like he's right there. Just a silhouette."
