Kendrick Lamar Drops Surprise Album GNX

Kendrick Lamar has stunned fans with the unexpected release of his sixth studio album, GNX. This marks the first project since his departure from Top Dawg Entertainment, making it a significant milestone in his illustrious career.

The 12-track album includes “squabble up,” which was teased during the opening of Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” music video, and features a star-studded lineup of collaborators such as SZA, Sam Dew, Dody6, AzChike, Siete, Wallie the Sensei, and more. Production credits boast an impressive roster, including Mustard, Sounwave, DJ Dahi, Terrace Martin, Kamasi Washington, and even Kendrick himself.

The album’s title, GNX, is a nod to the Buick Grand National Experimental car, reflecting Kendrick’s penchant for weaving metaphors into his work. GNX lands in the wake of his high-profile feud with Drake, highlighted by the Grammy-nominated diss track, “Not Like Us,” which topped charts and further cemented Kendrick’s dominance in the rap game.

Adding to the buzz, Kendrick is gearing up to headline the Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans, a move that sparked heated discussions among fans, particularly Lil Wayne supporters.
