anybody and kanye would come to the hospital and play his music for lamar and would sit with him. one of the first things lamar started remembering were lyrics to the music that kanye played. it was almost therapy. story. dari: he talked about the fact that kanye played the rough cuts from this album for him. i mean, they really have a relationship. >> it's a bond. it's a bond that lamar clearly feels because his doctors told him not to go, that it was too taxing and he felt he had to be there. dari: authenticity. we like it. steve: we'll see the whole thing in a couple of months on keeping up with the kardashians. it's a good hook. they know what they're doing. we appreciate it. thank you. dari: rock 'n roll legend from new jersey recalls his rise to superstardom. steve: when the boss' memoirs is
