Like a viscous drop bear pouncing on an unsuspecting swagman, a new album from hip-hop throne occupant Kendrick Lamar has sent shockwaves throughout the internet, following a surprise announcement that we’ll be getting new material from the masterful emcee earlier today. Dubbed untitled unmastered, the surprise release seems to be a collection of the intense, powerful “untitled” tracks Mr Duckworth has been performing for the past year or so, already delivering us three of these gems, with a total of 8 on the album; for those not gifted at mathematics, that’s five unheard new Kendrick tracks for you.
The album has now been placed up for purchase and streaming on iTunes. You can also hear it on Spotify.
Guests on the album include Cee-Lo Green and Egypt, 5-year old son of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys who helped produce “Untitled 07”.
This revelation also makes things even more interesting for Kendrick’s upcoming appearances at Auckland City Limits , Australia’s Byron Bay Bluesfest, and his Melbourne/Sydney Sideshows. Will he be performing any of these 8 tracks? We’ll be finding out later this month.
