Kendrick Lamar was joined onstage by Mos Def for a rendition of 'Alright' this weekend, after Lamar spotted his longtime hero side of stage. Watch it below.
Lamar headlined the second night of Montreal's Osheaga Festival over the weekend, during which he performed tracks from Good Kid M.A.A.D City and To Pimp A Butterfly, as well as his verse from A$AP Rocky's 'Fuckin' Problems'.
As Pigeons and Planes reports, just before launching into 'King Kunta', Lamar spotted Yasiin Bey, better known by his former stage name Mos Def, side of stage. After a bit of encouragement from Lamar, who explained that Bey inspired him to start rapping, he came on-stage to dance.
Shortly thereafter, Lamar passed Bey the microphone and the pair treated fans to a rendition of 'Alright'.
