He apparently thinks Quavo and his ex were se- cretly dating while he was promoting their album Cul-

Kendrick Lamar’s New Album ‘DAMN’ Drops Friday
New Statue Of Tupac To Go Up In Stone Mountain, GA
Kendrick Lamar’s cover of his 4th album have inspired fans into transforming the cover art -- which was unveiled early Tuesday (April 11) -- into memes.
Tupac Shakur will be honored in the most memo- rable way, thanks to a new, huge bronze statue being erected.
A $500,000 bronze bust of the rapper is going up on the grounds that used to be the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
The original Tupac bust was vandalized in 2008. Pac’s family took the bust
when the center was sold in 2015.
Jim Burnett, former owner of the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center has raised a massive amount of capital needed to start work on a new bronze Tupac statue.
Burnett has commis- sioned artist Nijel Binns to make the new 7-foot statue of Tupac, which will be un- veiled in September.
Kendrick Lamar’s
fourth studio album cannot arrive quickly enough. After pump faking an April 7 re- lease date, K-Dot dropped stark front and back cover im- ages and the tracklist for his next project, which is titled Damn (stylized as DAMN.) and is due on Friday.
Tuesday news broke that Kendrick Lamar's recent single, "HUMBLE," made a #2 debut on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, thus becoming the highest Hot 100 debut for a rap song in seven years (since Eminem - duh - dropped "Love the Way You Lie" in 2010).
The title of every song on Damn mirrors the one-word, punctuated format.
Kendrick mentioned that his next project would have a spiritual slant in a recent in- terview and some song titles
particularly align with that idea (“God”).
DAMN. features 15 tracks with just two (fairly) massive features, from Rihanna on the song "Loyalty" and U2 on the song “XXX."
Almost every song on the album is titled with after some sort of emotion, includ- ing "Pride," "Love," "Fear" and more.
DAMN. Tracklist 1. BLOOD.
2. DNA.
3. YAH.
4. ELEMENT.
5. FEEL.
6. LOYALTY. (feat. Ri-
hanna)
7. PRIDE.
8. HUMBLE.
9. LUST.
10. LOVE.
11. XXX. (feat. U2) 12. FEAR.
13. GOD.
A $500K Bronze statue will honor Tupac.
