Kendrick Lamar is the best rapper alive right now. His brilliant third album To Pimp a Butterfly (read our review) has been the biggest and best thing in hip hop in ages and the first video to drop since it was released has now arrived - watch 'King Kunta' below..

There's a litany of the staples of the West Coast rap scene on show in a joyous journey down Compton, with low riders, thugs decked out in gang colours, wife beater vests and ridiculous booties all on show. It certainly looks more fun than these rain drenched quarters we reside in the North West of England.

This summer Lamar will play the New Look Wireless and Leeds & Reading Festivals, meaning you get the perfect chance to catch the biggest album event of the year to date in the flesh in 2015.
