So you've spent the last 10 hours filling your brain with Kendrick Lamar's ferocious new album, DAMN. But like the rest of us following suit, your head's probably still swirling with burning inquiry. And that's fine. After all, there was a point when we contemplated the possibility of names like Kanye West, D'Angelo and Andre 3000 making appearances. By now, you've likely put that to rest. But now that we've actually had a moment to hear this thing, it's time to solidify the DAMN. roster.
Today, the full credits for Kendrick's new album have been released, revealing J. Blake to be James Blake, S. Lacy to be Steve Lacy, as well as the precise contributions of To Pimp a Butterfly co-pilots Thundercat, Kamasi Washington, and Terrace Martin. Elsewhere you'll find BADBADNOTGOOD, 9th Wonder, Alchemist and extensive work from Bekon.
