Album Cover: Kendrick Lamar - 'good kid, m.A.A.d city'

Kendrick Lamar takes snapshots from his life and shares them with the world on the covers of his debut album good kid, m.A.A.d city. The standard artwork appears to be a Polaroid picture of Kendrick as a child, while the deluxe shows a photo of a mini-van parked outside a house in Compton.

Due October 22, the album features the Dr. Dre-assisted single “The Recipe” and follow-up “Swimming Pools (Drank),” as well as a collaboration with Lady Gaga called “Partynauseous.”

In his latest VEVO LIFT episodes, the Compton MC meets a fan who won a Twitter contest and talks about his personal style. “I’m not flashy, I’m not over the top,” says Kendrick, who’s currently headlining the “BET Music Matters” tour.
