The Grammy award winning rap superstar hasn’t released a solo album since DAMN in 2017 but it looks like he’s gearing up to release a new album in 2020 with a new sound.
Rumors are circulating that the Compton rapper is in the final stages of completing the highly-anticipated project and Music Journalist, Bille Werde, reports the album may feature “more rock sounds.”
Did anyone not named Beyonce release better, more meaningful back-to-back albums last decade than Kendrick Lamar? Are you interested to know that I hear from several friends that recording on the new album may finally be done? And that he’s pulling in more rock sounds this time?

Wouldn’t be the first time a revered rapper turbocharged public focus on rock. Ie “Walk This Way.” For most rappers, if I heard “rock album” I’d run the other way. If anyone can make it work it’s Kendrick though. And I don’t at all doubt he will. https://t.co/P98cnvxxPr

K.Dot is scheduled to perform at a series of festivals overseas this year including Lollapalooza Stockholm, Open’er Festival, and Bilbao BBK Live so we are hoping that means all new music, soon!
