Kendrick Lamar Uncertain Of Release Date For Upcoming Album (@kendricklamar)



Kendrick Lamar is excited about his upcoming album but isn't sure when fans will be able to enjoy it.


In an interview with San Francisco's 106 KMEL, the rapper dismissed the September release rumors, how T.D.E. does business and not feeling the pressure in creating Good Kidd, m.A.A.d city, the most talked about rap album in recent years


"Not really pressure," he said. "I think it's like fun if anything because it's a challenge not only for myself, my fans. And just me creatively. I think it's more of an anxious type feeling. Cause this word 'pressure' was thrown around right before my album. Every interview I was doing. And seriously I didn't feel it. I was like 'I'mma go out here and give it my best shot for what I know.' And I'mma do that the second time around."


He also talked about his relationship with T.D.E., which is longer than what most people think.


"[We have] real meetings. We sit down. And we been doing this for the past seven, 10 years. Really like grouping up and having meetings of what we gon' do. You know? And that helps. Communication helps all the way. As far as knowing each individual artist and what they goals are and what they come to do. And that comes with good management."


As for a release date for his upcoming album, he isn't sure just yet.


"It's in the process. We cooking... I couldn't say. I couldn't give a false pretense on where I'm at... I can't even give a date or a time, but it's going to be an event."


Are you looking forward to Kendrick's follow up to Good Kidd, m.A.A.d city?
