Kendrick Lamar has recently released a new track called "The Heart Part 4", and now without warning he released another new single, "Humble", with its accompanying video on Thursday, March 30. Despite the title, Lamar is anything but humble in the cinematic clip.
The three-minute video which is produced by Mike WiLL Made It has very captivating visuals. At the beginning of the video, Lamar stands in the middle of a large empty room wearing a religious garb, then in the next scene the "Alright" hitmaker lies above stacks of cash as he delivers his verse. Another scene features the 29-year-old rapper standing in a crowd of bald black men. The highlights of the epic music video are obviously Lamar's reenactment of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" and a scene where his hair is in flames.
While the video showcases enigmatic attitude of hip-hop world, the song has very catchy lyrics. "I'm so f**kin' sick and tired of the Photoshop/ Show me somethin' natural like afro on Richard Pryor/ Show me somethin' natural like a** with some stretch marks/ Still will take you down right on your mama's couch in Polo socks, ayy," Lamar raps about being humble and natural in "Humble".
However, it seems fans are not very excited with the new song. "This ain't Kendrick I remember from to pimp a butterfly, or good kid mad city. I don't like this song," a fan commented below the video. "This song boring af with a boring a** chorus but I hope the album is good," another fan expressed his disappointment. Although fans are not really into the song, they still have a high expectation on Lamar's upcoming album. "Not sure if I'm f**kin wit it hope his whole album don't sound like this Kendrick seems more cocky now idk lets see how the album come into play," a fan commented.
The previous single, "The Heart Part 4", has made headlines hours after the release, as the track allegedly disses Donald Trump and an unknown fellow rapper. Meanwhile, it has been two years since K-Dot released his latest album, "To Pimp a Butterfly". Lamar's upcoming album is expected to arrive on April 7.
