I’ve been on my vibe like 20 years straight I’ve been on my weight like 20 years straight President Carter, name one nigga out there harder than him Sittin’ next to Hilary smellin’ like dank There’s a million dollars in it, baby, Hilary Swank No, I don’t ‘member you, I don’t intend to empty my memory bank In the West with a mink runnin’ through that bitch like it’s my house Rumors on the ground gettin’ too loudwe turn them shits downĬan’t hear myself think, turbulence, shit, almost spilled my drink This is the burpie, nigga lyrical exerciseīite down on the curb when you heard that I got these words I got a P89 in a suitcase I hope you heard me, nigga, When we thirsty nigga, never alert me, nigga When the water beside ya, make the pool shake Go get me a knife, you’re looking like steakĪnd when the stakes are high, I stake out for days …yo honey, you thought I was fresh out the yardĭon’t cry to me dummy, you’re lightweight I look at the game and see porn there fuckin’ this industry hard I’m lookin’ to be the god MC, you look at my hat and see thorns there This courtesy of Compton Brooklyn go hard, motherfuckerīevy on the East like I’m Chuck D, Dominicans wish that I was born there So what, y’all keep the numbers I’m more than another statistic, my nigga Hol’ up, Trinidad James in four weeks but now my album platinum and shit Look inside of my soul and you can find gold and maybe get rich I’m yelling bitch don’t kill my vibe, bitch don’t kill my vibe I can feel your energy from two planets away I am a sinner who’s probably gonna sin againīitch don’t kill my vibe, bitch don’t kill my vibe At times it is hard to understand K.Dot and Hov due to the video’s quality, so following along will help decipher their intricate bars. If you’d rather see the lyrics than watch Young Guru and the dudes in the front row sway back and forth, they’re posted below. Never one to be slack on a collab-he is the reigning champ of “Renegade-ing” after all-Kendrick brings two fresh verses to this version, each one longer and more technically flashy than anything he spat on the original. The Jiggaman’s engineer treated his crowd at SXSW to a revamped version of Kendrick Lamar’s hit “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe,” now featuring a sharp verse from Jay-Z.
Like I said earlier, you can't even hate.That was Young Guru’s war cry before unveiling the jewel of a record he must have been waiting all night to spin. Kendrick closes his second verse telling cats "you never be Jay, never be Nas, never be Snoop nor Dre." Kendrick has been so successful in large part because he has stuck to his own story, carving away at the legacy of Kendrick Lamar, carefully balancing respect for his roots and honest self-discovery through mainstream rap music. Now, with a gold plaque, K.dot takes a victory lap with a Jay-Z guest appearance on the remix for one of his LP's standouts, "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe." Though Jigga stunts like only he can, boasting about hanging out in the White House like it's a mall and sitting next to the former Secretary of State "smelling like dank," the hallowed MC actually comes through sounding like a support for Kendrick's energetic performance. From the most curmudgeon backpack-rockin' 'real hip-hop' purist to the most jaded industry head, no one can deny that Compton's Kendrick Lamar has at least somewhat infused some excitement into a music that, on a mainstream level, has been running on fumes for a bit. Even the most hating hater can't knock Kendrick.
