Kendrick Lamar has already produced a few unforgettable highlights from his Big Steppers Tour, but now he's sharing his favorite moments from the tour along with a touching message about his journey thus far.
On Wednesday, August 3, K Dot took to Instagram to share a massive trove of images from his past shows. The images, shot by Greg Noire, give fans a glimpse at how his tour has been going so far with plenty of jaw-dropping shots, visuals of him with his customized ventriloquist dummy, and of course, the emotional scene of a security guard crying while performing one of his hits. In addition, he posted a reflective message to his Instagram Story.
“Rap has truly helped my expansion of self," Lamar wrote. "Beyond the perception of who I believe to be. on jojo. music is air to a young n***a at this point. Mr. morale. the catalyst of my self expression. ill never forget the process of falling in love with imperfection. the piano. my fans. the stories of reconciliation i hear from penitentiaries to small villages. Some words will find you today. Some will find you in 10. find your children type s**t. sitting in the corner like an old book. im forever underground. infratrating the mainstream a la carte. these cities still beautiful to watch. on jojo. ily. –ok ok!”
