With the release of Kendrick Lamar’s O(verly) D(edicated) project quickly approaching; I felt it was only right to bring back his previous EP for those that haven’t heard it and/or for those that may have forgotten about it (although I highly doubt that). Features include Ab-Soul, Jay Rock, Schoolboy Q, Rapper Big Pooh and more.

DOWNLOAD: Kendrick Lamar – Kendrick Lamar EP



















One of the best Hip Hop EPs of all time. Wanna Be Heard, P&P, Vanity Slaves, Let Me Be Me, Thanksgiving, and Faith are all classics.
one of the best projects ive ever listened to… real shit, gifted MC
Cosign CommonSensei
Always thought Far From Here was the nicest joint.
If you passed this up before quit sleepin. Dude has talent mos def.
I’ve been listening to this at least once a day for the past week preparing myself for that greatness that will be OD.
Wanna Be Heard, P & P, and I Am = my favorite joints… Wanna Be Heard sold me though, proof he’s legit.
I got this the first time it was posted just to give it a shot. Hadn’t heard of the kid before then. Since that time, I’ve listened to this EP probably at least once a week. Dude is nicer than the world will probably ever give him credit for. Can’t wait for OD
I’m dling this based on the comments so i better not be disappointed
This is fine but fairly average. Just wanted to counteract the obvious street team acting like this is the best collection of songs ever.
She Needs Me >>>>
this has been on repeat since winter..cant wait for OD
still play this CD regularly. cant wait for the OD
He’s getting shit done.
One of the best mixtapes in the past year. Only song I didnt like was P&P which everyone else loved I guess
@D
u sound foolish bro. if u think this is all fake comments why dont u check out the 100s of “Fake” responces he gets on twitter from his work. I never met the dude but got mad respect for his music as well as mostly every 1 who comes across it. call it what u want but i just hate ignorant comments like that.
Mixtape was tight.. real tight
What POPS said.
I thought this came out tomorrow? I could have sworn I heard 9/15
This is the E.P. that came out last year.
OD comes out tomorrow for free download. But it’s on iTunes right now to purchase.
“I thought this came out tomorrow? I could have sworn I heard 9/15″
this is from the end of 2009. hence the “BRING IT BACK” title and 2009.
based on comments this should be ill.
Changed my outlook on the game, i can’t fathom what this new shit will do since im still fascinated at every one of these tracks.
the heart pt. 2 is not on itunes. WTF is it only gonna be on the free version?
Kendrick Lamar EP > 99% of any mainstream rapper album in 09
Kendrick Lamar EP has been getting constant play from me for a straight week.
Um if O.D. is on i-tunes already, does anybody mind leaking it a day early? Been waiting for this tape for a couple months now!
Dude is real down to earth and a jokester. Hope he does well, but I’m always a fan
Finally he is getting some recognition. He definitely deserves. Thanks shake for posting his throwback EP, was DOPE solid.
Mixtape is majorly ill
this ep still is my shhhiiitttt!!!! is od going up at midnight?
we’ll have OD up at midnight pst time. 4.5 hours for those that cant do the math haha.
@Shake
how many mb ? need to make some space lol
i LOVE this project this is most def a modern day classic. its still in my rotation til this day!
I wasn’t on Kendrick at first, but he is one of my favorites now. Dope EP, P&P
she needs me and far from here were my favorites, but such a solid album no track dissapoints, grab this if u dont so ull be ready for OD!, cant wait for tmw
i doubt OD will be better in all honesty. Only 2lame songs on the EP. But the rest of the damn thing is classic straight up. #stan
So ill one of the best projects, faith and vannity slaves are my favs
PST time =/
I hope I remember to get that EP in the am so I have more to add to my playlist going to class.

very upsetting news very anxious for this project.

highly appreciate this, very good looking out shaker
@G
Straight up, tell him how it is
any sample(s) info for this project? anyone hearing “Is It Love” ???
Love This EP
kendrick lamar might be pound for pound the best west coast up n coming rapper yet, this kid is just all day with the #classics.
honestly, who can touch this kid right now? NOT EVEN YOUR FAVORITE RAPPER COULD.
Yea, I still rock to this. What came before this?
pure dopeness!
highly impressed, this dude is a breath of fresh air this ep was sick, cant wait for OD
After passing over him for a while, the coverage on OD made check out his EP just this past week. It’s already become one of my all-time favorites. Been listening to it nonstop and will definitely be tossing in my money to PURCHAES and support his new album today.
“I’m dling this based on the comments so i better not be disappointed”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
WAIT TIL YALL HEAR THE OD TAPE…….DOPE
the ep is ill, i 1st caught kendrick when he went by K-dot
and did that song with lil wayne & jay rock called colours
shit was ill, been a fan since then look up colours on youtube
I have this ep i was talking about the OD people were sayin they had it already.
Where can I get OD for free?
^^ You can buy it on ITunes right now or wait until tonight to download it for free.
Faith is an awesome track… when I first downloaded the EP, I always had that joint on repeat. I wanna see “OD” has to offer when it drops…
so is the OD droppin for free at midnight tonite?
^^^^Last night on UStream he said he was gonna wait 3 or 4 days to put it out for free..^^^^^so i doubt that..
