by

From Compton to Ghana.

Fresh off the release of his new album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, Kendrick Lamar traveled to Accra, Ghana for the first time. His journey was documented as part of a mini-documentary for Spotify.

In the first 15-second trailer, he meets young fans and hits the beach. He was having such a good time that he forgot what day it was.

“I couldn’t even tell you what day it is,” says Kendrick, whose song “We Cry Together” soundtracks the clip. “I’m just being in the moment. This life shit, it’s all about an experience. And everybody got they own different experience.”

The documentary debuts sometime next week. Kendrick will also perform as part of Spotify’s Cannes Lions Festival programming on June 20.

Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers debuted at No. 1 upon its release last month. Kendrick shot a short film for one of the standout tracks, “We Cry Together” with Taylour Paige, which is playing for a limited time at the Laemmle Theatre in L.A.

Starting July 19, he will bring his live show across the globe on “The Big Steppers Tour,” which kicks off in Oklahoma City.

Kevin Gates is single and shooting his shot.

Amid reports that he split with his wife Dreka, the Baton Rouge rapper dropped his “Super General” freestyle, on which he addresses their estranged relationship.

“Her and her son jumped my new wife and took her purse and won’t admit it,” raps Gates, who has been romantically linked to “Love & Hip Hop: Miami’s” Jojo Zarur.

He also insinuates that his partner of 18 years was unfaithful. “Personal trainer invaded my personal space / Deep down inside it killed me,” he raps over Kodak Black’s “Super Gremlin” instrumental.

He then proceeds to express his explicit sexual desires for famous women including Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, and Rubi Rose.

“Rubi Rose, I can’t wait to have your feet facing my ceilin’ / With my tongue deep in yo ass while I kiss all on yo kitty,” he raps before shooting his shot with Queen Bey.

“Ain’t no disrespect to Jigga, met through Nipsey, that’s my ni**a / Don’t know if they into swinging / Beyoncé need to let me hit her,” he says before detailing more of his graphic fantasies.

He also lusts after Nicki Minaj, knowing very well that she is married. “I want Nicki, she need Kevin / She still playin’ around with Kenneth.”

Elsewhere, Gates addresses his friendship with Moneybagg Yo. “That’s still my brother, but we just distant / Always love when he be shinin’, remind me of Mozzy when he glistenin’.”
