Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly

Review by Jude Clarke

This is an important – a very important – piece of work that will stand the test of time»

Buy now from:

Highly anticipated second major-label album from Compton MC, Kendrick Lamar, following on from 2012's hugely successful album 'Good Kid, M.A.A.D City'. Features George Clinton, Flying Lotus, Snoop Dogg, Thundercat, Bilal, Anna Wise (Sonnymoon), Rapsody, Ron Isley, Lalah Hathaway, Robert Glasper, Pete Rock, Terrace Martin and James Fauntleroy. Arguably the best rapper in the world currently, Kendrick describes the album as "honest, fearful and unapologetic. 'To Pimp a Butterfly' ranges from the intensely personal to the swaggeringly aggressive. Includes double Grammy winning single 'i' and 'The Blacker the Berry'.
