Directed by Va$htie
Presented by the good folks over at Rocksmith. Here is what the video’s director has to say:
Inspired by “A.D.H.D.”s dark beat and melancholy lyrics which explore a generation in conflict, we find Kendrick Lamar in a video that illustrates the songs universal and age-old theme of apathetic youth. Shot in New York City during the sweltering July Summer heat, “A.D.H.D” is the third video to be released from Kendrick Lamar’s debut album Section.80.
Don’t forget: K-Dot makes his return to New York City next week (August 31st), presented by the NMC.

such a dope joint. glad they put a video together for it.

this video should’ve been monumental and went along with lyrics of the song…looks like it was just advertising rocksmith to me
OH MY FUCKING GOD KENDRICK LAMAR IS AMAZINGGGGG!!!!!! I FUCKING LOVE YOU KENDRICK YOUR LYRICS AND FLOW ARE LIKE A FUCKING ORGASM!! OH MY GOD SECTION 80 IS ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!! I LOVE ME SOME KENDRICK! NO RAPPER IS TOUCHING KENDRICK, HE IS THE NEXT 2PAC! OH MY GOD YOU’RE AMAZINGGGGG!!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHA
one of my personal favorites off of Section 80…This album really gets better with each listen. 8 doobies to the face, fuck thaaaaat
the video had absolutely nothing to do with the song
LMFAO @ Rezo
Sad thing is, that’s pretty spot on. I was just listening to this song too. Comment system still fucking sucks.
Rocksmith LookBook video. This chick Va$htie really needs to stop. This was barely even a fucking music video.
aye @realshit
the video is about being wild and immature. adhd
^Yeah that’s obvious. But it was conveyed in the worst way. It didn’t even capture that well. They were too busy trying to capture the Rocksmith logo on his shirt.
this was terrible. i expected to have the song go with the lyrics. nope. that was one of the songs on the album that should have had a dope ass video to complement its meaning. but nope.
That chick at the end was ugly………………………..
Video for Tammy’s Song was a lot better, HiiPower was good, this was a lil boring, still waiting to see how Rigamortus turns out though.
I liked where the video was goin in the beginning. I thought it was gonna be him buying liquor and blunt wraps And he was gonna take em to a party to get fucked up. You know to correlate with the song? It was okay, but he should’ve saved the video concept for a song less deep than this one.
didnt like the video should of done it like the story he tells in the lyrics would have been so much better
favorite song off section.80 and they make the music video a rocksmith commercial smh.
1. this is wack
2. vashtie is not talented, and idk why people think she is. she’s just a sexy jawn that wears streetwear and jordans so yall think she’s talented
3. the song itself is monumental, so trying to be “artsy” and convey a deeper message was such a fail. the video should have played out the lyrics, period.
check out his newest mixtape http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/view-album/21845-robots-and-skylines%3A-1.5
that shit was wack… video could have been WAY better
Niggas stop saying Kendrick is the next 2pac cause when he fails your fucking expectations, thats when you gonna turn around and hate the nigga. Niggas always doin that shit, did the same shit with cole puttin him on this high ass pedestal saying hes the next pac FOH. Kendrick is the next Kendrick, fuck outta here with that shit.
ok, so where’s the real video cuz this can’t be it. this shit was hot garbage
extremely wack video. WTF kendrick I was expecting a dope ass video for a dope ass song but naaaah lets make a fucking stupid rocksmith commercial and slow motion it all – yeah! that sounds real good!
vashtie cant direct for shiiiiiiit. There was so much potential for this video.
Love the song, but the video was garbage.
Niggas stop saying Kendrick is the next 2pac
cause when he fails your fucking expectations,
thats when you gonna turn around and hate the
nigga. Niggas always doin that shit, did the
same shit with cole puttin him on this high ass
pedestal saying hes the next pac FOH. Kendrick
is the next Kendrick, fuck outta here with that
shit.
Truth said this on
^^^^^^^
THANK YOU! People were being idiots saying Cole is gonna make a Illmatic when he is nowhere Nas’s level of lyricism…he’s just relatable to the college/high school audience and can tell stories, he’s just conscious…but when it comes to lyrical skills and MC skills, Cole’s not even top 10 today and def not anywhere the G.O.A.T Nasir…stop putting rappers on a pedestal, I know its rare hearing somebody spit real shit but please stop overreacting and let them be themselves
I was really expecting a better video from vashtie but I guess TDE to didnt pay her enough lol jk but still one of my fav. songs
Im mad AF at this video. it shouldve been waaaaay better, this was my fave song and vashtie did it NO justice. smh
Wack video to a song off a highly overrated album…. they should’ve done something to Hol Up instead…
this song deserves a better video. Crazy how wack ass How to Love gets a dope as fuck video but this dope as fuck song gets a wack ass vid. opposite day like a mother fucker.
@Truth: cosign!
yeah…the video was wack but i still appreciated b/c Kendrick blessed it. maybe he did that on purpose just to let his fans know HE’S HUMAN and HE’S PRONE TO MAKE MISTAKES (like this VIDEO! LMBFAO!)>>>going HARD! we’ll be seeing my nig perform this Saturday @ the LOFT in ATL!!! HII POWER NICCA!!!!
LMAO @ this video. dope song but the vid is garb
This is just a Video. This song needs a Short Film. Id of opened it w/Kendrick in a room w/time lapse party (prob. bite Zack Snyders camera steez from 300 and Watchmen) going on in the background and him ripping 8 blunts in a row, popping pills and whatever…on some stop motion animated ish. When the 808′s drop, switch gears to Kendrick @ the party spitting his verse @ the camera or whatever in real time. Then rinse and repeat. Just off the top. Advertising is infecting Music Videos though, for real.
I was about to post this video everywhere….but shit comes out looking like a commercial and has no basis on the lyrics, i.e “I’m in a house party….look around all I see is a big crowd…”. I guess I’ll wait for the Rigamortis video
^ @enlight
i was bout to do the same shit til i saw the video haha.
and for all the ppl sayin he’s not the next pac…i dont see one person in this thread makin a pac comparison. i think all the love kendrick gets is well deserved and honestly if u don’t like wat he did with section 80 u either have some other problem with him or u really dont kno hip hop. call me a stan or watever but if u cant recognize that album as a snapshot of our generation then u really gotta get out more. lookin forward to the rigamortis vid, this one didnt do it for me
1) although i love the album and this song, this video made no sense in comparison to the song.
2) a “i <3 NY" pullover tho??? way to get @ em Vashtie.
P.S. i could have done that shit Vashtie…

P.P.S. I <3 V.Kola.
kendrick lamar can easily slide in my top 5 dead or alive when his album drops.
hmmm maybe i missed the concept…
lets hope that Rigamortus video actually has a thought out concept, or Kendrick needs to tap some up and coming producers..
FUCKING HORRIBLE VIDEO
man that song is so tight and video ruined it, what the hell lamar
RE-SHOOT THIS VIDEO!! Man, Ab-Soul’s “Drift Away” video was what this video should have been like.. a house party, simple right?
WTF
Dude makes one of the wackest videos I’ve probably seen on this site in a while with no real relation to the actual track, and gets 400 thumbs up, and only 22 thumbs down. Explain this please.
CARTER IV LEAK CLICK THE NAME
i do like people looking out for kendrick shit tho.. its a video whatever. the song is more important to me. i go thru the day bumpin the song not watching the video. but oh well
This Video was dope…it had to grow on me to be honest..but it would of been better if A+ Shot it
@ joe dirt……. exactly, anyone that missed the point of the video is just braindead, clearly about being young and wild ( bike riding, all the goofy shit they doin) kinda goes with adhd to me. doesnt really match the lyrics but the carefree, have fun energy is what ties the video to the song. take 2 seconds an put 2 and 2 together people, shit.
thumbs up for song, thumbs down for video
Honestly I don’t know what everyone expected. Vashtie’s videos arn’t that groundbreaking or dope anyway.
Wow i was expecting some crazy shit for this video….really disappointed
@fffecalsplatterlikecakebatter That doesn’t change the fact that it still sucks.
What the fuck is up with artists making whack videos nowadays? All this handy cam budget shit is getting out of hand. I’m not saying that vibe can’t be dope if done correctly but everyone seems to be using it just so they can have a video out. It’s sad that niggas like Tyler and Kanye are the only ones who really give a shit about their videos anymore. Bring back the old Hype Williams and that old skool MTV shit.
fuck…i really hope the Rigamortus vid is better than this. it isn’t bad but the track is dope and the album is new classic. i like the vibe tho
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3zOK6uQZN8
i hope they do ronald reagan era mv, that shit cray
@rmpwolf Big videos like that cost money dude. Sometimes it isnt the quality that makes a video either. Remember the “Protect Ya Neck” video? that shit was super grimey. Dope ass video tho right?
That being said… this video is wack.
Vashtie fine ass is a wack director. Vid has absolutely NOTHING to do w/ the song. I haven’t liked a vid from her yet.
dope song.
gay video
wasnt good or bad
Me thinks the mask part of the video is a reference to Killer of Sheep. A film about a black ghetto. May be a stretch but the connection of ADHD and the film’s theme of “societal pressures” is there
