The BET Hip-Hop Awards success comes as rumors continue to circulate about Lamar working on a new album. His former TDE labelmate, SZA, recently hinted at a new project being in the works in a post on X (formerly Twitter). Additionally, Terrace Martin confirmed the news while streaming on Instagram Live, earlier this year. “Aye, let me tell y’all the records I’m excited for. I’m excited for YG’s album, I’m excited for Mustard’s album. I’m excited for a lot of people, but there’s two albums, I’m going cr*zy, I can’t wait ’til they drop,” he explained at the time. “Roddy Ricch album and whenever Kendrick drops his album, I’m excited for those two.
