All the Surprises From Kendrick Lamar’s Surprise Album GNX
From Jack Antonoff to a slight jab at Lil Wayne.
The title is a flex more than anything, but Lamar does rap about the car: “All I ever wanted was a black Grand National,” he declares on “tv off.” He also shows off that GNX in the minute-long teaser he dropped just before the album came out. On “wacced out murals,” Lamar tries to make sense of it: “Used to bump Tha Carter III, I held my Rollie chain proud / Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down.” He goes on to rap that “everybody questionable,” and adds, “Won the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me.” Maybe he got some more texts today. He also goes on to give credit to TDE’s executives, shouting out the trust that CEO Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith put in his artists and comparing president Terrence “Punch” Henderson’s encouragement to legendary Chicago Bulls coach Phil Jackson.
