Kendrick Lamar to Celebrate 10th Anniversary of 'GKMC' With Live Stream on Amazon

In honor of the 10th anniversary of his classic major label debut, good kid, m.A.A.d. city, Kendrick Lamar will live stream the Paris show of his 'Big Steppers' tour.

The show will be streamed live from the Paris Accor Arena and can be viewed exclusively on three Amazon platforms.

“As a kid from the west side of Compton, hearing ‘good kid, m.A.A.d city’ for the first time and seeing Kendrick’s journey from neighborhood hero to global superstar ignited a fire in me that I’m forever grateful for,” said Tim Hinshaw, head of R&B and hip-hop for Amazon Music.  “Now, 10 years later, it’s almost poetic that two kids from the same city with similar, but different dreams have landed in Paris to celebrate not just that record but Kendrick’s latest revolutionary album, ‘Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers.’

The stream will also include performances from Baby Keem and pgLang artist Tanna Leone who are both featured on his acclaimed Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers.

Earlier this year, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers became the first Hip-Hop album in 2022 to cross one billion streams on Spotify. The project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in May and has since gone on to earn critical-acclaim for its deeply observational examinations of love, relationships, self-worth and Black trauma.

The stream will begin live at 2 p.m. ET on Oct. 22 on Prime Video, the Amazon Music app and Amazon Music’s Twitch account. The concert can be streamed on-demand on Prime Video after the livestream.
