“Prior to me going in
“Prior to me going in and recording the record, everything is 80% premeditated first, before I actually put the words over the reference track or go in the studio to lay down vocals.
Everything for me is about execution, ‘cause’ I can do in with a million ideas but if I’m not executing it right, it doesn’t feel home to me y’know so, I like to put a lot of different things, wordplays and messages in my music because I want to live further than two weeks." - Kendrick Lamar talking to Zane Lowe

Full Article On Kendrick Lamar Teaches How To Improve Your Rap Voice: Medium: kendrick-lamar-teaches-how-to-improve-your-rap-voice-in-3-steps
Since the outset of his career, the Compton native has captivated listeners with his diverse array of flows and capacity to get to the very heart of a social, political or personal issue with an acuity that no other MC possesses.
But, alongside these commonly employed tools, K-Dot is a man who utilizes the full scope of his vocal cords in a way that MC’s who are less artistically inclined may not even consider.
Where many artists would lead with braggadocio or an air of menace as a rule of thumb, Lamar uses his voice as the tool in a way that doesn’t simply compliment his exquisitely crafted bars, but transports the listener into the emotional root of the track.
Rather than just dispensing his words into the world with carelessness, Kendrick is mindful of the fact that how they’re uttered is just as important as how they’re crafted if they are to have the intended resonance.
“It’s not tough to write…” he says, “when you’re writing from experiences, it’s like that!” He clicks his fingers.
“The hard part is actually recording it because you have so many different emotions you may not want to pour out on the microphone.”
Having revealed that “doing music is the only way for me to get that conflict out”, it’s no surprise that recording his bars is actually more daunting to him than the prospect of penning words.
Seeing the delivery as every bit as crucial as the craftsmanship, what aspiring artists should learn from K-Dot is that you don’t just relay the lyrics, but embody the musical experience through your voice.
Known to enlist the full spectrum of emotions and technological tools at his disposal, K-Dot’s method of recording and augmenting his voice for the song in question is closer to “method acting” than it is to what other artists do in the booth.
Now, when used as the place where the multi-faceted nature of his identity as an “old school gemini” is expressed, K-Dot’s delivery doesn’t just emerge fully formed…
With his tried and trusted producer Sounwave- revealing that he “rehearses the song over and over in his head so he can get the full feeling”, K-Dot will do whatever it takes to get the highest degree of expressiveness out of his vocal chords.
As documented by Sounwave on The Big Hit podcast, one notable instance where Kung Fu Kenny pushed himself to the limits in order to deliver an emphatic performance came on the heart-rending “U”.
A standout on the sprawling odyssey of To Pimp A Butterfly that takes in everything from feelings of survivor’s guilt to deep-seated resentment of the self, you’d need to be made of stone not to feel emotions rousing within you when you hear Kendrick’s pained, regretful rasp on the track.
As to why it sounds so effective, it’s because he utilized his real-life pain of losing a friend to fuel the track, opting to leave himself in darkness in order to be alone with the pain. Conversely, the grief-stricken vocals emerged.
