Kendrick Lamar Hot New Album Release 2015: Upcoming LP to Feature Song With Snoop Dogg? [Pics]
Kendrick Lamar is currently working on his yet-to-be-titled sophomore album, which might feature fellow West Coast emcee Snoop Dogg.
The "Drop It Like It's Hot" hitmaker recently took to his Instagram account to share a snapshot of himself and the Compton rapper, presumably taken at the recording studio. "Work. !! K. Dot.," he wrote the following caption, hinting at their collaboration:
While many speculate Snoop Lion as one of the guest artists on the follow-up to 2012's "good kid, m.A.A.d city," it is also possible that K. Dot might appear on his upcoming "Bush" project with Pharrell.
The joint album, which will feature legends such as Stevie Wonder and Charlie Wilson, is aiming for a release in March.
In addition, Peter Rosenberg, co-host of New York radio station HOT 97's "The Morning Show," previously discussed his four-track preview of the TDE rapper's forthcoming LP.
"After the interview, I was privy to hear some of the new music from Kendrick Lamar that will appear on his next album dropping some time in early 2015," he said during a November edition of "The Realness." "Yes, Kendrick Lamar somehow has developed even more, gone to another level. He's talking about Black righteousness. He's talking about Africa. There's social commentary."
The radio DJ then claimed that Lamar's latest project is quite similar to his critically acclaimed major-label debut album: "There's all kinds of deep thoughts... There are deep thoughts throughout. However it is upbeat music that is gonna thrive in the club and on the radio. However, just like 'good kid m.A.A.d city,' you can hear there's no attempt to make club music."
Kendrick Lamar also promised that his second studio album won't sound the same as his latest single "i," which some fans were disappointed to hear because of its upbeat, happy vibe.
"I'm not an artist that's gonna give you a single and say, 'This is what my album's gonna sound like, go sell it.' That's not me," he told XXL.
"Everybody has their own niche," he added. "With mine, I just own it, and I know that's exactly what that is. And I wanna keep that lane. I don't want to jump in somebody else's lane and try to do their moves because it may not work for me like it worked for them. So I stay where I feel like I'm inspired."
