LateRooms.com - Paris to Welcome Rising Rap Star Kendrick Lamar

    PARIS, FRANCE, June 07, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Kendrick Lamar, one of hip-hop's most promising new artists, is due to appear in Paris next month.

His show at the Bataclan venue on Thursday June 28th should give rap fans in the French capital their first glimpse of a performer who has been widely tipped as the next big thing in the US.

Born and raised in the Compton area of Los Angeles, Lamar is part of the Black Hippy collective that also includes Jay Rock, Ab-Soul and Schoolboy Q.

He received widespread praise for his independent studio LP Section 80, which was released in July 2011 and named by several critics as one of the year's best albums.

Lamar is now working on a follow-up release - rumoured to be called Good Kid in a Mad City - and also gained attention for his cameo appearance on Drake's Take Care.

He has performed with west coast rap legends such as Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, with many fans viewing him as the latest major talent to emerge from Los Angeles.

Tickets to see the 24-year-old perform in Paris can be purchased online, priced at EUR26.30 (GBP21).

Hip-hop fans who require hotels in Paris will find plenty of options at LateRooms.com, which recommends the Cerise Chatou.
