Kendrick Lamar was in a dark place. Popular producer Sounwave has spoken up about the recording of classic track “u.”
In the newest episode of Spotify’s The Big Hit Show podcast, Sounwave shed some light on the making of the classic ‘K. Dot’ track. He revealed real-life suffering that bled over into the booth, which in turn created some beautiful music.
He told the host…
“That time he actually went in the booth, turned out all the lights and you just knew something was different. Going back to that, like, I’m about to tear up. That was deep. I’ve never seen him like that.” Sounwave continued… “I’ve seen him experiment on trying to get different things out, but to actually pull that emotion out, in my head I felt him bombarding himself for every heart thought that’s hitting him at that moment just to get that feeling.”
The Compton native co-produced the song with Taz Arnold and Whoarei, so he was up close and personal for the experience. It’s amazing to see the power of expression through music, something Kendrick has certainly mastered.
Until the next time it drips…
