Watch Kendrick Lamar Do ‘i’ Live, Give Everyone Their Weekly Pep Talk

(For example, I can tell you for a fact that “i” is without a doubt a flawless Kendrick Lamar song. But you may not find that factually accurate somehow.) But regardless of where you land on this song, you’re gonna want to see K-Dot sing the words “I love myself” in front of a live audience for the first time (in Drake’s city, nonetheless; #powerplay).
