"i" Cover Art - Before the video dropped, K Dot gave credit to the heart of his inspiration: the unification of red and blue personified by a "gang sign" for love.(Photo: Top Dawg Entertainment/Interscope Records)
'Backseat Freestyle' Video - K Dot told you to respect his mind on this good kid, m.A.A.d city single, and with the video we saw a glimpse of it, the dichotomy of life at home and life on the road.(Photo: Top Dawg Entertainment/Interscope Records)
'Rigamortis' Video - Kendrick Lamar has been murkin' you no name rappers since before "Control." We kid, we kid. But he did drop bodies in this video, harkening back to The Roots' "You Got Me" featuring Erykah Badu. (Photo: Top Dawg Entertainment/Interscope Records)
'B***h, Don't Kill My Vibe' Video - Kendrick refuses to conform, and after gaining popularity bucking against youthful indiscretions (and O.G. pastimes) with "Swimming Pools (Drank)," he sent a clear message to his generation with this video: Death to Molly.(Photo: Top Dawg Entertainment/Interscope Records)Album of the Year –  Kendrick Lamar, good kid, m.A.A.d city - good kid, m.A.A.d city set the tone for Kendrick Lamar's rule. K. Dot's major label debut is a rap feast that resonates for showing the Compton rapper's artistic maturity without sacrificing his underground roots. (Photo: Interscope Records)
