New Music: Kendrick Lamar – “The Heart Part 4” [LISTEN]

Guess who’s back.

After posting a cryptic message on his Instagram earlier today, Kendrick Lamar drops “The Heart Part 4.” The Instagram post caused major pandemonium across the Internet, with everyone trying to depict what he was getting at. Turns out it was the fourth installment of “The Heart” series, nearly five years after dropping Part 3.

On “The Heart Part 4,” K. Dot comes out firing graphic, aggressive lyrics sending shots at a rapper, or maybe even the whole industry. He also takes shots at Donald Trump, the Electoral College and praises Jay-Z on his “Hall of Fame” status and induction into the “Songwriters Hall of Fame.”

“My fans can’t wait for me to son your punk ass and crush your whole little s**t / I’ll Big Pun your punk ass, you’re a scared little b**** / “Tiptoe-in around my name n**** ya lame and when I get at you homie don’t you just tell me you was just playin,” raps Kendrick.

Once again the Internet is about to crash with these gut-wrenching lyrics. Everyone is trying to figure out who Kendrick’s deadly shots are for. Drake, J. Cole and Big Sean have been the topics of conversation, being potential targets.

Aside from the roman numeral 4 being the fourth installment of “The Heart” series, it is also official that K. Dot will be dropping his fourth album on April 7th. “You know what time it is / Ante up, this is here forever / Y’all got till April the 7th to get y’all shit together,” raps Kendrick hinting at his fourth studio album.

Listen to “The Heart Part 4” below and tell us who you think the shots on the song were for in the comments below.

Kendrick Lamar Drops Cryptic Message Possibly Hinting A New Album [PEEP]

Kendrick Lamar isn’t really on social media and doesn’t keep up with any of the outlets. So, when he dropped the above image on his Instagram earlier today, fans went into pandemonium, rightfully so.

To me the “IV” is K. Dot hinting at the release of his fourth album. The “IV” translates to the number 4 in Roman numerals. That makes sense if you take into account that his debut album was ‘Section.80’, his second was ‘good kid, m.A.A.d city’, and his third was the critically-acclaimed, ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BR-YXjeha56/?taken-by=kendricklamar

Cornrow Kenny is really due to drop a new album being that it’s been two years since ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’. I mean, I know he dropped ‘Untitled Unmastered’ last year, but K. Dot don’t even consider that an album.

That number 4 could also be hinting that King Kendrick is planning to drop the album in April, being that April is the fourth month of the year. For now it is all speculation. There is no release date, cover art (unless that is the cover art), no info really.

Somebody added fuel to the fire posing as ScHoolboy Q on Facebook and taking a shot at Drake by posting a caricature of the ‘More Life’ cover with a worried face. Q should it down quickly with a response at Twitter calling it “corny”.
