Wonder goes on to show a savvy appreciation for current music. One of his favorites, it turns out, is a young Compton rapper.
“Kendrick Lamar is extremely talented. But not only is he just talented; he has a real concern for the people,” said Wonder. “The good thing about the young is that they want to fix things.”
