Kendrick Lamar makes powerful Glastonbury debut
Kendrick Lamar opened his Glastonbury headline Set with a powerful, theatrical performance unlike Anything Else The Festival has seen So Far .
Flanked by 20 dancers, he has been playing songs from his Pulitzer Prize-winning back catalogue in almost chronological order.
Early highlights include The Hits MAAD City, Backseat Freestyle and Swimming Pools, which have drawn a very different crowd to The Pyramid Stage than Diana Ross 's dazzling performance earlier in The Day .
Lamar emerged onstage wearing a crown of thorns to perform United In Grief - a song that examines his conflicted relationship with fame, Looking Back over his 19-year career and The Mental Health problems he has addressed across multiple albums,
As he stood still at The microphone, The dancers lined up behind him, each representing a different aspect of his personality.
From there, he delved into his back catalogue for almost half an hour before addressing The Crowd .
" I like where The energy is at right now Glastonbury, " he declared. " We're going to have a Good Time tonight. "
The Performance , his Glastonbury debut, has been hotly anticipated since it was originally announced, then postponed, in 2020.
British rapper Aj Tracey , who gave a thrilling Pyramid Stage performance of his own on Saturday, said Lamar was one of The Most important artists of his generation.
" He works very hard But he's also unwavering in his message, " he told Bbc News . " There's a meaning behind everything he does. He always stands up for Black People , for impoverished people, people who are unfairly treated - and that means a lot to people.
" When you're already a good rapper, it's easy to be on autopilot, " he continued, " But when you stand for something and you push a message, that's what makes people love you. "
Lamar tops The Bill on The Final night of The Festival , which has also seen performances from Billie Eilish , Paul Mccartney and Diana Ross .
British pop royalty Pet Shop Boys are also playing a Greatest Hits Set as headliners on The Other Stage, while pop star Charli Xcx is closing The John Peel tent.

" People say they haven't heard anything like it before, " frontman Marko Galanevych told The Bbc . " Most People say 'It's unusual But I like it'".
During their Set , The Band projected images of The devastation wreaked by Russia's invasion of their Homeland - just days after a video message from President Volodomyr Zelensky urged festivalgoers to show solidarity with his country.
As morning turned to afternoon, jazz legend Herbie Hancock delivered a masterclass in cool, with a virtuoso Set packed with classics like Cantaloupe Island and Take Five.

Around 7pm The Skies cleared and The Sun started to Set - The perfect moment to catch up-and-coming Jamaican star Koffee on The West Holts stage.
Her easy-flowing songs had half The Crowd engaged in sort of a low-slung dance, while The rest Laid Back and soaked up The Sun -kissed grooves.

" We're in this together. I'll Be Kind and gentle and when I think you're ready to handle it, I'll [mess] you up, " she joked.
She kept her promise,. Early in The Set , she played a beautifully powered-Down version of Stoned At The Nail Salon, accompanied by Arlo Parks and Clairo; But ended her performance with a massive Dance Party to a pounding version of Green Light .
The Day also saw surprise sets from Jack White , his hair dyed blue to match his guitar, and George Ezra , whose crowd spilled out of The John Peel tent into The Fields beyond.
