Coachella 2017: Watch Kendrick Lamar Debut DAMN. Songs
Kendrick Lamar came through with a very memorable headlining set at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival last night. It was a show that featured special guests and performances of older songs, but more prominently, it featured his first-ever performances of songs from his new album DAMN. The show opened with the Fox News segment prominently sampled on the album. Then, he performed “DNA.” (accompanied on stage by a ninja) and “ELEMENT.” Later, he did “LUST.,” “XXX.,” and “GOD.” He hung mid-air and performed “PRIDE.” He closed with “HUMBLE.,” and then returned with “LOVE.” for the encore. Watch clips of the performance below, and scroll down to see footage of Lana Del Rey dancing along in the crowd.
DAMN. came out on Friday; it features U2, Rihanna, and Los Angeles-based singer Zacari. The album’s credits also revealed contributions from James Blake, Kamasi Washington, and more. Read “5 Takeaways from Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN.” on The Pitch.
