In his surprise single, "The Heart Part 4," Kendrick Lamar advised rappers (the world?) to brace themselves for April 7th, a date many are speculating signals the release date of a new project.
Over the weekend, conjecture flipped to full-on anxiety with the apparent leak of a track list for the album. And let's just say that if it stands, K Dot may have another classic in the chamber. It reveals collaborations with longtime TDE contributors Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Sounwave, Anna Wise and Terrace Martin. But it's the non-labelmate names that should raise eyes and attention. Also featured on the track list, collaborations with D'Angelo, Q-Tip, Kanye West, Andre 3000 and fellow Aftermath artist, Anderson .Paak.
Now, I hate the leaked lists more than most things in the world, but the last time one of these popped up (the peculiar case of the Gorillaz's new album, Humanz) it turned out to be precisely the advertised roster. Suppose we'll have to wait and see, though. Peep the leaked track list for Kendrick Lamar's rumored new album below and hope with us all this isn't just some music nerd pulling on the heart strings of the world. Revisit "The Heart Part 4" in this week's installment of The Round-Up.
