Prior to Kendrick Lamar’s ‘good kid, mAAd city’ he displayed his lyrical talent and story-telling skills in no more than a few mixtapes, and when the album dropped it certainly wasn’t detrimental to his career.
Kendrick’s debut album allowed him to touch on aspects that some may have thought he was incapable of doing, as he made room for himself in the game. Since the album, he has only demonstrated his growth as an artist through features and singles.
Only two singles (‘i’ and ‘Blacker the Berry’) have been revealed from his new upcoming 16-track album titled ‘To Pimp a Butterfly’ which will be dropping on the 23rd of this month. The track listing has been released, as well as the album cover to the highly anticipated project.
TDE and Interscope drop an early stream and iTunes link to help combat leaks from the project.
