On February 15, 2012 a song titled "Cartoons & Cereal" featuring Gunplay was leaked. Lamar revealed later that the track was for his upcoming album and he was planning to shoot a video for it.

In March 2012, MTV announced that Top Dawg Entertainment, the independent record label Lamar is signed to, have closed a joint venture deal with Interscope Records and Aftermath Entertainment, marking the end of his career as an independent artist. Under the new deal, Kendrick Lamar’s projects, including his upcoming debut studio album Good Kid in a Mad City will be jointly released via Top Dawg, Aftermath and Interscope, while releases from the rest of Black Hippy will be distributed via Top Dawg and Interscope.

Lamar premiered "The Recipe", his debut single and the lead single from Good Kid in a Mad City, at Power 106 on April 2, 2012. The track was released for digital download the following day. The song was produced by Scoop DeVille and features Dr. Dre.

Kendrick Lamar Talks "Cartoon & Cereal," Nardwuar & More With Murs

Image Murs sits down for a candid interview with Kendrick Lamar during the Paid Dues Festival.
California rapper Murs flipped the script a bit as he switched from artist to interviewer for an interview with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar at the Paid Dues Festival last month.
While the interview was more of a casual conversation between two artists, with subject matter ranging from Ab-Soul’s hair to Nextel phones, Kendrick did take some time to speak on the complexity of his music when asked about his track “Cartoon & Cereal.”
“I just wanted to do a little twist on just my generation. Talk about something wild, you know. But not throwing it out there and making it something that everybody can just catch on to,” Kendrick explained. “They really gotta sit and dissect it for a second.”
Kendrick also spoke on his interview with Nardwuar which took place during this year’s South By Southwest Festival. The rapper revealed that he was initially caught off guard by Nardwuar’s wealth of facts.
“That was kinda uncomfortable for a second,” said Kendrick. “It was funny though, that dudes crazy. He do some research. I was wondering if he just called a few people up that I knew.”

Kendrick also spoke on his interview with Nardwuar which took place during this year’s South By Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas. The rapper revealed that he was initially caught off guard by Nardwuar’s wealth of typically unknown facts.

“That was kinda uncomfortable for a second,” said Kendrick in a video posted on 2DopeBoyz.com. “It was funny though, that dudes crazy. He do some research. I was wondering if he just called a few people up that I knew.”

Kendrick Lamar Discusses "good kid, m.A.A.d city" Album & Relationship With Lady Gaga

Kendrick Lamar explains the extent of his relationship of Lady Gaga, and discusses his upcoming album.

Image Anticipation is steadily growing for Kendrick Lamar's major label debut, good kid, m.A.A.d city, for which the rapper dropped the first single, "Swimming Pools."

In an interview on WGCI's 107.5's "The Morning Riot," Kendrick explained that his album would not feature many (if any) artists. "I'm selfish on this album," he revealed. "A lot of people get into my situation, they feel that they made it already. They wanna grab all these producers, all these names. I still feel like I gotta prove myself."

Kendrick also made headlines recently when Interscope labelmate Lady Gaga reached out in support of the West Coast emcee.

"That's a good friend," said Kendrick of Gaga, who was in attendance at his performance at recent Pitchfork's Music Festival. "She just reached over on Twitter. Just being a fan of the music. We come from two different worlds, as far as the music we doing."

"She's a fan of Hip Hop," added K. Dot. "She says...my sound is refreshing. That's what really attracted her to it." Kendrick explained that when Gaga reached out, he thought it was a prank. "There be so many fake accounts on Twitter and stuff, so I had to really go through and check. It was her, most definitely."

Kendrick Lamar Says Features Will Be Minimal On "good kid, m.A.A.d city"

Image Kendrick Lamar confirms that Black Hippy will make an appearance on his upcoming LP.

Kendrick Lamar is at work on his major label debut good kid, m.A.A.d city, releasing October 2nd. While he's worked with Gunplay and Dr. Dre on a few pre-album leaks, K. Dot says that guest features will be kept to a minimum on the project, explaining to CBC Music that the LP will be organic and that no collaborations will be forced.

“I’m selfish – it’s all me,” he said. “I’ve got to pick what feels right. I never go into it thinking, ‘I want to get these people on there.’ No, I don’t force nothing and right now it’s turning out to be all me.”

He did confirm that his Black Hippy crew, which also includes ScHoolboy Q, Ab-Soul and Jay Rock, will make appearances on the album. But even as his profile continues to rise - he was recently featured on XXL magazine's cover with Dr. Dre - he doesn't feel the need to call on big name favors.

“People get in this position and feel like they need the big producers, the big artists,” he said. “Nah – I’m still hungry. I want to show and prove to the non-believers.”
