Data Insight

Kendrick Lamar wrote his own verses across GNX, a surprise release that landed amid the momentum of his Drake battle and the chart-topping 'Not Like Us.' Sounwave and Jack Antonoff led the production, with Mustard, Sean Momberger and saxophonist Kamasi Washington contributing, giving the record a polished West Coast sound. SZA features on 'luther' and 'gloria,' and Kendrick spotlights a roster of Los Angeles voices including Roddy Ricch, AzChike, Lefty Gunplay and Dody6.

Released November 22, 2024 as a surprise drop, GNX is Kendrick Lamar's sixth studio album, arriving in the aftermath of his highly publicized rap beef with Drake. Named after a 1984 Buick GNX, a car associated with Compton culture, the album blends West Coast swagger with introspective reflection. Features SZA, Dody6, Roddy Ricch, and Lefty Gunplay.
