Kendrick Lamar Hot New Album Release Date 2014: 'The Blacker the Berry' Rapper Unveils New Cover Art and Possible Title for Upcoming LP [Pic]
It turns out that Kendrick Lamar's highly anticipated sophomore studio album is not called "Untitled," and its cover is not a black square.
The Compton emcee took to his rarely used Instagram account on early Wednesday morning to post what appears to be the official artwork of his upcoming record.
The black-and-white image clearly aims at racial prejudice in America today -- just like Lamar's most recent single, "The Blacker the Berry." It features a group of black men and children posing in front of the White House, while holding cash, champagne and babies.
There is a white man, who appears to be a dead judge, lying on the ground with his eyes crossed out with X's and a gavel in his hand.
"Don't all dogs go to heaven? Don't Gangsta's boogie? Do owl sh*t stank? Lions, Tigers & Bears. But TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY. Its the American dream ni**a...." - lil Homie," K. Dot captioned the image.
The words "To Pimp a Butterfly" is in all caps -- which suggest that this could be the title of the "i" rapper's latest project. Top Dawg Entertainment CEO Anthony Tiffith also tweeted:
Last week, Lamar took to his Twitter account to share an iTunes link for his forthcoming LP, with a $14.99 pre-order button:
For now, the link leads to a "Digital Booklet - TBD" - a collection of 16 tracks.
Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly" is set for a release on March 23.
