Kendrick Lamar sealed his 2024 rap MVP campaign with a brand new album when GNX hit streaming services without any warning on Friday (November 22) around noon ET.
Initially, a GNX The teaser hit YouTube in the form of a one-minute clip, and fans were hoping it would signal the start of a release.
But that wasn't it, as Kenny went to the back and wasted no time in continuing with the 12 piece GNX album via pgLang.
SZA joins former Top Daw Entertainment for a chill collaboration on “Luther,” while Dot bounces off a sample of Debbie Deb's “When I Hear Music” for “Squabble Up,” which was originally teased as “Broccoli.” .
Kendrick was rumored to be working on an album in the wake of his feud with Drake, and the Compton native is coming before the end of 2024. GNX serves as Lamar's official sequel Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers in 2022, which topped the Billboard 200 with 295,000 total units gained in its first week.
K. Dot is hitting the road in 2025 with a new album, and he'll have plenty of new music with him when he takes the stage at the Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show in February when the big game comes to New Orleans.
Even before the album's arrival, Lamar scored seven Grammy Award nominations earlier this month — five of which came as a result of his anthem “Not Like Us.”
