Compton native and Top Dawg Entertainment rapper, Kendrick Lamar, will also accompany West on the tour. Although a newcomer, Lamar has already made his mark in the hip hop world especially with his song “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe” and his talked about verse on Big Sean’s “Control,” which rapper 50 Cent said was “a breath of fresh air.” His debut album, “good kidd, m.A.A.d city,” which was released in Oct. 2012, is certified platinum by the RIAA.
