Pharrell, Justin Timberlake, Kobe Bryant, Katy Perry and more react to Kendrick Lamar's 2016 Grammys performance
Kendrick Lamar stole the show at the 2016 Grammy Awards on Monday night (Feb. 15). With politically charged renditions of "The Blacker The Berry" and "Alright," the Compton rapper -- who took home five trophies including best rap album for his sophomore studio album To Pimp A Butterfly -- wore chains alongside dancers before hosting an on-stage bonfire at Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Even Adele had to give Lamar a shout out following her own Grammy performance. "Love you Kendrick, you're amazing," she said.
Timelines followed Adele's lead as celebrities gave K. Dot glowing co-signs after his powerful set. See how blue checks reacted to his performance on Twitter below.
