Kendrick Lamar “i” Cover Art

    Top Dawg Entertainment’s Top Dawg has released the cover art for Kendrick Lamar’s forthcoming “i” single. 

    The cover art is below, as is a tweet from Top Dawg about new TDE material.

    “i” is labeled as “new music” in an e-mail from Top Dawg, while NAHRIGHT refers to it as a single.

    The “i” image features a person dressed in blue facing a person in red. Both are making similar hand gestures.

    Kendrick Lamar has discussed working on the follow-up to his acclaimed 2012 album, good kid, m.A.A.d city.

    “You’re only as good as your last piece of work,” Kendrick Lamar said of his forthcoming album in June, “so now it’s about what’s right now and me putting that same 110 percent that I did with the last one.”  

    Top Dawg’s tweet also says that music from Jay Rock is coming soon.

    1. I listened to it. This was actually shortened to I Love myself. It has kendrick coming out as gay to the whole world. This shit will go wood.

    2. Why is it called “i” and why does he have old man gangster hands on his album? Stupid hipster rappers are always doing dumb random shit and acting like it has meaning.

      1. Haha honestly I’m loving the dream vile team, there’s a couple Bas songs with cole that I’ve gotten into, my nigga just made bail, and lit good solid roster so far.

    4. “Both are making similar hand gestures”… Really? Do u mean the people making HEARTS with their hands.. wtf is a hand gesture

      1. “You are alslo behind your computer and Judge haters who you dont know. Whats up with that?”

        I bet you felt yourself when you write your post. you probably thought you would sound clever huh ?

        ain’t nothing wrong with judging a hater for his idiocy and judgement full of hatred on other people’s life.

        it only becomes a problem when you judge someone over his work and professional career without any single reason just because you feel uncomfortable with your goddamn self

      2. so according to the sophisticated clown above we have to be rappers to judge an artist. How about this, I’m the consumer I preview it, I don’t like it I won’t buy; AND/OR I can voice my displeasure & critique it in THE COMMENT SECTION WHERE YOU CAN COMMENT & NOT BE A 100% STAN. If YOU DONT LIKE MY OPINION YOU CAN HOP OFF KDOT NUTS & TURN OFF THE COMPUTER

        read carefully what i’m bout to write fuck face. there is a fuckin gap between hatin on someone without any reason and giving an unbiased critic on his work with constructive arguments. if you would have understood that in the first place i would not have replied to your post. the next time keep your faggot fingers off your computer and read twice before replying some bullshit to a comment you did not understand.

        of course anyone can give his opinion on music. especially a consumer who’s buying it. and it’s everybody’s right if they don’t like it. but at least explain it intelligently. all I see in this section is “kendrick is a faggot”. you call that a critic, i call that hate. and if you don’t understand that, well you have a serious problem.

    5. up to I looked at the check saying $4286 , I didn’t believe that my mom in-law realey receiving money parttime at their computer. . there friends cousin has done this for under twenty two months and resently cleared the dept on there condo and purchased Chevrolet . official website

    8. Gkmc was so fucking Amazing. When I listen to it, it was more than music, it was a story of a person just like me with dreams, fear, dangers, trouble, happiness, adolescence and maturity. He stayed true to his roots he kept it original but different. God bless Kendrick Lamar and hip hop.

    9. I’m officially a fan now… I heard gkmc last week and it blew my mind. Good god, I havent heard an album like this in a GOOD minute. I will actually purchase this rather than download it. If hip hop artist pumped out more stuff like this, labels could move units like it was ’98.

    10. Wow. One thing I liked about the production of his last album is that the beats are different from current hip hop albums and it sounded like all the producers were on the same page. It almosts seems as if the whole album was produced by one person. That’s how smoothly the album flows.A TRUE MASTERPIECE Kendrick.

    11. Good Kid M.A.A.d city one word. Outstanding. Masterfully put together, tight flows, manner of delivery of sometimes morbid content done in a socially acceptable manner, this album appeals to not only dedicated hip-hop fans but also the passive ‘hip-pop’ chart listeners. It is evident this album is meant to be the gate-way drug if you will to the world of alternative hip-hop music (You know, the plethora of hip-hop music hardly recognised by anyone outside of the Youtube community) with tracks such as ‘Swimming Pools’ and ‘the recipe’ speaking to the apathetic weed smoking indie/ hipster/ neo-hippy playstation generation and for the time being It would be hard to refute the claim that Lamar is primarily an alternative hip-hop artist. Akin to what is expected of A$AP Rocky’s impending debut, the overall sound of this album is so different to what has came before. Take for example ‘Sing about me’ and its smooth jazz like sound or ‘Sherane’ which can only be described as possessing a strange alien undertone. It reminds me of the progressive rock music of the seventies, Could Lamar be to Alt Rap what Pink Floyd was to Prog Rock? Only time will tell but the cynic in me is screaming that this may be the prerequisite to another rapper turned chart mule i.e making alot of noise to get attention and then being obedient to the time tested formula of making a shit load of money as we have seen so many times before. However, I would leave this notion to pure speculation for the time being as what Lamar seems to be doing and what GKMC is representing is nothing less than the progression of rap music and I am excited at the possibility of what this could mean.

    12. Hopefully this album is on some GKMC/s80 levels

      GKMC album will go down as one of the best albums of all time for any genre just like Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt, Ready to Die and the other rap albums that are considered the best of all time. When those albums came out we didn’t understand how great they because were very young at the time. Now we have a chance to witness a classic and a legend in the making. The storytelling is amazing. It’s like a movie. You can’t just listen to a couple of songs or skip through. You have to listen straight through from beginning to end.

      1. Drake raised the bar so high! In the R & B category…eat some baby dicks both u n Drake…appreciate Kendrick…

    13. the artwork alone makes me want to buy the whole album. will purchase 5 copies coz rare talents like kendrick deserve to be here in 20 years.

    14. This MIGHT be the last album before the full transition to the pop market, time will tell. Still looking forward to it, it’s been a slow year

    15. I buy almost everything except food and clothing from online auctions most people arent aware of the almost I unbelievable deals that they can get from online auction sites the site that has the best deals is

    16. Start working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life.

      This is what I do.

    19. Kendrick Lamar was involved in a drive-by shooting earlier this afternoon, there were no injuries except for one of his gigantic ridiculous dumbo ears getting clipped by a stray. They flopped around in slow motion for 2 hours after like in the swimming pools vid.

    20. I’m so jealous of Kendrick I wish I was that prosperous instead of gay and fucking wack and no woman or man ever respects me. Can I ever be like you Kendrick or should I just give up now and not embarrass anybody by trying?

    21. Ready for another classic! Been anticipating this album since GKMC dropped. Since then he has shut the game down! Control, bet cypher, shitted on eminem,t.i,jeezy,jay z,kid cudi,pusha t tracks! Its no doubt this album will be a million times better than the last.

      1. Newsflash; TDE already is big. And nobody promised a black hippy album would ever come out. Frankly nobody really even cares about jay rock anyhow. Isaiah Rashad would make a far better 4th man.
