Kendrick Lamar’s new announcement update
Back in August 2021, Lamar went to his social media pages to alert the world on his new music. Lamar revealed plans to go the solo route after putting out his final TDE release.
“I spend most of my days with fleeting thoughts. Writing. Listening. And collecting old Beach cruisers. The morning rides keep me on a hill of silence.
I go months without a phone.
Love, loss, and grief have disturbed my comfort zone, but the glimmers of God speak through my music and family.
While the world around me evolves, I reflect on what matters the most. The life in which my words will land next.
As I produce my final TDE album, I feel joy to have been a part of such a cultural imprint after 17 years. The Struggles. The Success. And most importantly, the Brotherhood. May the Most High continue to use Top Dawg as a vessel for candid creators. As I continue to pursue my life’s calling.
There’s beauty in completion. And always faith in the unknown.
Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I’ve prayed for you all.
See you soon enough.

Baby Keep and Kendrick Lamar’s ‘family ties’
Last year, Lamar teamed up with his real life cousin Baby Keem for their ‘family ties’ anthem. Not only a fire single, the duo made sure to drop a music video for the smash.
