Prince Brings Out Kendrick Lamar During Album Release Party Livestream

Last night, Prince threw a Yahoo-sponsored record release party to celebrate his two new albums, Art Official Age and PlectrumElectrum (the latter recorded with his band 3rdEyeGirl). During his performance, he brought out Kendrick Lamar to perform “What’s My Name”, a rarity from 1998′s Crystal Ball box set. You can watch a short clip of Kendrick’s appearance below—or, if you’re more intrepid and don’t mind waiting, you can sit through about fifteen minutes of the pre-recorded live stream until he comes out. (Sorry, no fast-forwarding; Prince remains apparently committed to eschewing technological convenience.)
