Kendrick Lamar's newest album, Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers, has been released.

Kendrick Lamar is a Pulitzer prize winning actor, deemed a "voice of a generation rapper." With these incredible accolades, fans have been hungry to see what would be next released by the artist.

On this Friday the 13th, a day notorious for bringing bad luck, Kendrick Lamar is showering the music world with some unbelievably GOOD luck. His new album, Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers has been officially released. This marks Kendrick Lamar's first album in five years.

In just a few short hours, the album has already hit #1 on the US Apple Music charts.

We can't credit this to luck: the hours, work, and artistry put into this album by Lamar are instantly apparent. This is the product of excellent work immediately paying off.

Earlier this week, Kendrick Lamar teased his new album with the release of the song "The Heart Part 5".

The song was instantly met with the praise of the world, and a deep analysis into the intelligent, literary intricacy.

Similarly filled with poetry is the religious symbolism in the album's cover. On the front, Lamar is wearing a crown of thorns while holding a baby while in the background is a woman holding a baby. There is another religiously designed cover for the album in which Kendrick Lamar looks as if he has been made into a stain glass window.

Now, we are going to listen to this album 5000 times in a row.
