Kendrick Lamar reveals to SZA for the magazine Harper's BAZAAR interview the first time he cried was when Snoop Dogg & Dr Dre passed him the torch (2011), and the last time was the 'Mother I Sober' song (2022)
"My tears is all on the internet..."
SZA: ...When was the last time you cried? When was the first time you cried?
KL: I would say the last time I cried was probably on Mr. Morale [2022’s Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers] on the “Mother I Sober” record. That shit was deep for me.
S: ...Wait, you didn’t tell me, what was the first time that you allowed it to happen?
KL: The first time I allowed it to happen is documented, actually, onstage [in 2011] when Dre and Snoop and the whole West Coast was out, and they was like, “This is the torch that we were handing off.” Dre passed me the torch, and a burst of energy just came out and I had to let it flow.... My tears is all on the internet. And now I look back and I love that moment. I love that that happened. Because it showed me in real time expressing myself and seeing all the work that I put forth actually come to life in that moment...
