Jamming with Kendrick...

(2 Weeks later)

Kendrick decides to let May feature on two of his songs on his new album: To Pimp a Butterfly. They both are in the studio recording "Alright", May's part is Bolded. Also, replace "Nigga" with "Brother" - May doesn't like to use that word as a term of endearment.

[Intro]Alls my life I has to fight, niggaAlls my life I...Hard times like, "God!"Bad trips like, "Yea!"Nazareth, I'm fucked upHomie you fucked upBut if God got usThen we gon' be alright

[Break]I keep my head up highI cross my heart and hope to dieLovin' me is complicatedToo afraid, a lot of changesI'm alright, and you're a favoriteDark nights in my prayers

[Outro]I remembered you was conflictedMisusing your influence, sometimes I did the sameAbusing my power full of resentmentResentment that turned into a deep depressionFound myself screamin' in the hotel roomI didn't wanna self-destructThe evils of Lucy was all around meSo I went runnin' for answers

Kendrick's POV

While May dances out the booth, Kendrick can't help but think how he wouldn't be in this booth rapping this song without her. She was there when he was low and she was the one that told him that everything was going to be "alright". Also, he thought to himself that she can not nae nae. As he chuckled to himself, something caught his eye that almost gave him a heart attack.

Kendrick: Sup baby...

Whitney: Hey KenDen.. (Walks into studio and sit purse down)..Hey everybody else.

Ab: Sup Whit...

Kendrick: May, this is my fiance Whitney, Whitney this is May... (tries to smile)

May: Hey! Congradulations!

Whitney: Thank you, I love this hunk... (Kisses Kendrick's cheek) ... So I heard your album was number 1 on iTunes..

May: Yeah, I was shocked..

Whitney: (mumbles) A lot of people were...

May: Huh?

Ab: (Sings loud) BABY WON'T YOU COME MY WAAAAY!!

Kendrick: ... Whitney can you please go into the kitchen and grab me a water please baby, i'm thristy as hell...

Whitney: Ok baby (Smirks and walks out studio)..

May: (Sits at booth and listens to "alright") ...

Kendrick: (Pulls up a chair next to May and just looks at her)... Uh...

May: Did she say I lot of people were shocked?

Kendrick: ... She said Your album rocked..

Ab: (Bursts out laughing)....

May: (Glares at Kendrick) ... (chuckles a little and leaves studio)...

Kendrick: Fuck! Ab what the fuck is so funny nigga?

Ab: (Makes Kendrick's confused asf face) She uh said your album rocked...

Kendrick: (Glares at Ab)...

Whitney: (Walks back into studio and hands Kendrick his water)... Here you go baby, where that girl go?

Kendrick: That "girl" got a name and second what the fuck was that?

Whitney: What was what?

Kendrick: I'm not about to argue with you right now, you're messing up my recording time. Me and May was supposed to be working on our second song together, but you want to come here uninvited and start drama.

Whitney: Are you seriously mad? It's just another T.D.E member, she'll get over it. Damn, if it was Ab or Q you would have just laughed.

Kendrick: You don't say sly shit like that to them tho...

Whitney: OMG KENDRICK, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOUR PROTECTING HER OR SOMETHING? IT WAS A FUCKING JOKE...

Kendrick: (Exhales, puts on earphones and listens to "alright")...

Whitney: ... Ab, was I wrong?

Ab: ... (Looks at nails) Huh?

Whitney: (Leaves studio)...

(Outside the Studio)

May's POV

May: (Talks to ol'yeller [Her Old Yellow Jeep Wrangler Sahara]) Come on baby, please.. I'll buy you some of that really expensive oil from AutoParts...

Whitney: (Walks up to her car and taps on window) You good?

May: (Looks up and sees that it's Whitney)... (sighs) I guess not, I think my battery is dead. I honestly don't want to ask the boys for a jump AGAIN.. I really can't bare another roast session.

Whitney: (chuckles to herself a little).. You got a jumper cord?

May: Yup..

Whitney: I'll help you ...

May: Really?

Whitney: (Puts hands on her hips) Yes girl, now come on lets get started..

May: (Somewhat shocked, gets out car and hands her the jumper cord)...Thanks

Whitney: Mhm..
