Jay rock, American rapper

More than four years after the release of American rapper and songwriter Kendrick Lamar's most recent solo album, 'Damn', and three years after his 'Black Panther' soundtrack, the Pulitzer Prize winner has finally given an update on his long-awaited next album.According to Variety, in a cryptically worded post on a new website linked from his Instagram account, he has apparently said farewell to his long-time label and management company, Top Dawg Entertainment."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," he wrote in part.The message was the only content on the mysterious website, and only appears when one clicks on a yellow folder titled 'nu thoughts'.TDE founder Anthony 'Top Dawg' Tiffith responded to this with a statement of his own. It said, "With this being Dot's last album on TDE, this is more of a VICTORY LAP, a celebration. I know he will be successful in whatever it is he decides to do and will have our FULL support."Curiously, Lamar and TDE's other top artists include, SZA, who has gone many years without releasing new albums.SZA has voiced frustration several times over delays in the follow-up to her Grammy-nominated 2017 album 'Ctrl'. She has released singles, features, appeared on the 'Black Panther' soundtrack and performed during a live-streamed in June, although she mostly performed songs that are several years old.Lamar's fourth album, 'Damn', was the first non-classical and non-jazz album to be awarded a Pulitzer Prize for Music, although he quickly followed that album with the soundtrack to 2018's Marvel blockbuster 'Black Panther: The Album', for which he wrote and produced 14 songs. He also appeared on Variety's first Hitmakers cover in 2017 and spoke at the event.In the years since, he's become a father and made several guest appearances.As per Variety, TDE, founded by Tiffith in 2004, also includes artists like Ab-Soul, Jay Rock, Schoolboy Q, and Isaiah Rashad on its roster. Back in April, the company posted a cryptic teaser that simply said, "The wait is ovah!!!!," leading most people to assume a new project from Lamar or SZA was imminent, but it turned out to be a new single and album from Rashad.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
