Kendrick Lamar's comeback might be right around the corner.
On Tuesday (September 1), K. Dot was seen shooting a new music video in downtown Los Angeles, as per People. In the photo of the star, which was published by the celebrity news outlet, the rapper is seen wearing a white sweatshirt, shorts and black Converse Chuck Taylors as he talks on a payphone on a crate. Back in May, TDE CEO Anthony "Top Dawg" Tiffith teased new music from Lamar. "Stay patient king Kendrick will return soon,” he told wrote in a comment during an Instagram Live.
It's been three years since Lamar's last album, DAMN. The colossal set, which spawned hits like "Humble" and "Loyalty," was certified triple platinum, won a Pulitzer Prize and a Grammy for Best Rap Album.
Back in January, Bill Werde, former Billboard editorial director and columnist for the outlet, shared some insight on K Dot's next project, teasing a rock-inspired direction. "Did anyone not named Beyoncé release better, more meaningful back-to-back albums last decade than Kendrick Lamar? Are you interested to know that I hear from several friends that recording on the new album may finally be done? And that he’s pulling in more rock sounds this time?" he told his Twitter followers. "A lot of huge albums expected in 2020. I’ll be surprised if there's one I listen to more closely the first time than this one."
