Kendrick Lamar Performs Hot, Intimate Show For Art Basel Miami
Hot, sticky and sweaty, rapper Kendrick Lamar performed Thursday night inside a spaceship looking dome on the beach as part of the Art Basel Miami Beach festivities.
During the intimate 75-minute show, Lamar first took off his outer shirt and continually wiped sweat from his face, jokingly complaining that if he had to sweat all night long that crowd better show him some love.
Midway through the show he took several water bottles from stage and passed them out to the audience. By the end, the Grammy-award winning singer thanked the crowd of about 400, guessing that some had “lost 10 pounds in sweat.”
“That’s enough (expletive) sweat to last a lifetime,” he said sincerely, thanking the crowd for not caring about mussing up their “cardigans” and fancy clothes so they could jump and dance during the close-quartered show.
Alicia Keys had the same problem during her performance here last year when the humid South Florida weather kept fogging up her sunglasses.
