Kendrick Lamar Surprises Fans With New Album
Sidestepping conventional methods, K-Dot released the new album without notice at noon on Friday (Nov. 22). Accompanying the release of the album was the “GNX” theme song and video, a one-minute teaser that finds the “Not Like Us” rapper waxing poetic over a slow instrumental driven by piano chords and string instruments.
“Only thing better right now is living right now when I can’t spare no feelings/Quiet on set but my aura loud, I never get through hood sh*t and wisdom,” he rhymes. “The money out here, young man, f**k corny on hand/Your dad broke, trying to play victim/The little ideas I told made people gon’ go rogue ’till God gave me a big one.”
The 12-track album features contributions from SZA, Deyra Barrera, Ink, Wallie the Sensei, AzChike, Hitta J, Sam Dew, Dody 6 and others. It also finds Kendrick addressing several viral moments he’s been involved in in 2024, including the beef with Drake and the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show controversy.
