Early Life
Kendrick Lamar Ward born April 6, 1991 in Chicago, Illinois, to his African-American parents, Bertha Ward and Timothy Johnson. His parents split when he was a toddler. He grew up with his grandparents on the poor west side of Chicago. After dealing with the absence of his father and the abuse from his mother, he turned to music to give him an outlet from reality. He used to play the drums for his family church. Also, he attended John Marshall High School, but he dropped out to pursue his music career.

Personal Life
GodKingKen supported himself by selling drugs off and on. He did the same with McDonald's, working off and on. This income also allowed him to go to the studio and record his music. His main regret is that he wasted a lot of time and money building artists that didn't believe in his vision. He is defying the odds of poverty and controversy by becoming an online musical sensation. He is the 2nd cousin of Polo G and the nephew of Jesse Johnson (Morris Day and The Time).
