"Here’s an insight from a middle-aged, white critic—
Kendrick Lamar’s performances here reminded me of David Byrne’s in Stop Making Sense. There’s an element of performance art here—Lamar knows the effects he’s going for, with his sweat-soaked, jerky movements that seem to wring his lyrics from deep inside—but it’s no less electric because of it. Didn’t know anything about the guy before tonight, but I’m thinking about buying a CD (because, again, I’m old). This was easily as compelling as Prince’s performance last week." - From A.V. Club
