Kendrick Lamar Explains Meaning Of "good kid, m.A.A.d city" Title, Reveals T.I. Collaboration

Kendrick Lamar is making the media rounds in anticipation of his major label debut good kid, m.A.A.d city, releasing on October 22nd. During an interview with L.A. Leakers, the Compton, California native explained the meaning behind m.A.A.d, stating that it's a two-pronged acronym, the second of which was inspired by a bad smoking experience.

"It's two, two meanings. The first is 'my angry adolescence divided,' and the basic standout meaning is 'my angel's on angel dust.' That's the reason why I don't smoke," he said. "That was me. I got laced. The reason I don't smoke, and it's in the album. It's in the story. It was just me getting my hands on the wrong thing at the wrong time, being oblivious to it."

K. Dot also said that the and T.I. have a collaboration for the Southern rapper's upcoming album Trouble Man, and that he will drop his project with J. Cole "out the sky."

Fuckin weird that most of my fav artist end up working with each other. Seen that video earlier with 3000 and Dre in the studio together. Maaaannn, shit makes me wanna pray to the Hip Hop God's lol

Man if 3000 and kendrick work together that would be dope...Dre in the studio with Dre is dope as well....can we get some music out of this please

Ive said Kendricks album was better, but you niggas are delusional if you think this dude is commercially relevant. Talking about west coast got his back, how did that work out for Games last album.

Honestly, the west supported Game by default - his whole buzz was manufactured by association to G Unit and the eastcoast embraced him first. As far as the topic and commercial relevance, Kendrick slightly above where Cole was prior to his debut and his fanbase is actually more diverse so chances are his first week numbers'll be around 200k.

Don't waste ya time on him g
 
GKMC definitely a candidate for album of the year and a real solid debut. It's a similar concept to Prince Among Thieves (Prince Paul) - but better musically w/ more commercial appeal.

Still waiting. Only songs I've heard are The Recipe and Swimming Pool. I've been listening to his 3 previous projects and I believe if this album is at least a 4/5 he solidifies himself as a GOAT.
