This past March, Bloomsburg University had the privledge of having the number one artist in the R-N-B game to perform at the Nelson Field House. Crowds of BU students, as well as students from surrounding colleges piled up in the gymnaisum to hear the beautiful beats of Kendrick Lamar. Tickets sold out fast among students and the public. A week prior to the concert, BU students had Kendrick Lamar on repeat!

As Kendrick first came out to his first song that featurs ASAP Rocky, the crowd immediately went wild. Kendrick's stage presence grabbed everyones attention, and the only thing that mattered was the music. As his concert went on, he performed many of the crowd's favorites. "Money Trees" was a song that many of the crowd recognized since it was one of Kendrick's first songs. Personally, his stage presence was captivating and drew me in from the beginning. Throughout his concert fans were amazed by how diverse the melodies were in a song.

His music is so versatile that it allows you to listen to him regardless of what mood your in. But it was then, when Kendrick played a song that made the crowd one huge sing-a-long. When he started to sing, "Sing About Me" everyone in the room was feeling a smoothe, relaxing song. The songs beautiful melody, alongside of it's relatable lyrics make it hard for Kendrick fans to take it off of repeat. His album "M.A.A.D CITY" released on October 22, 2012 follows the story of a teenage Lamar's experiences in the gang lifestyle of his native Compton, California.
