Kendrick Lamar is one of the biggest artists in the world, and there is no doubt that fans were anticipating a new album. It’s been just a few days since the five-year anniversary of the release of his last album DAMN, and it is an anniversary that reminded fans of just how absent Kendrick has been as of late. With no new album in sight, some fans had fully given up on the idea of Kendrick ever releasing again. Instead, they were pretty well at peace with him just being retired, altogether.
Today, however, Kendrick dropped a bombshell on the hip-hop world as he revealed that he has a new album dropping on May 13th called Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. The new album was announced through a letter on Kendrick’s website, and many noted that this was reminiscent of how Michael Jordan marked his return to basketball.
