Happy birthday to Kendrick Lamar, who turns 39 today. In 2009, a then-unknown rapper performing as K-Dot stepped up to freestyle at a Charles Hamilton concert, one of several emcees who took the mic that night. Hamilton didn’t recognize K-Dot and asked his name before he began. _ 🎥 via MADonlyArchives/YouTube #pigeonsandplanes #kendricklamar #charleshamilton #kdot #freestyle
