Kendrick Lamar’s “Watch the party die” Download MP3 Free Files
Kendrick Lamar released his latest track, the first one since “Not Like Us”, just as the Video Music Awards started on Wednesday evening. The thoughtful new song arrived amidst controversy, following the announcement four days earlier that he would headline the Super Bowl LIX halftime show.
The untitled track is not yet available on streaming services Spotify and Apple Music, but Lamar shared it on his social media. The song begins with the line: “I think it’s time to watch the party die.” Lamar then starts the first verse with: “If they can’t see the future first, why argue with these clowns? If the circus is well at work, just walk that man down. That’ll do. Everyone is solid. It’s love, but tough love sometimes gotta result in violence.” He also declares, “Influencers talk down, because I’m not with the basic shit. But they don’t hate me. They hate the man that I represent.”
The song makes references to Lamar’s collaborator Terrace Martin and rapper Lecrae. It was announced on Sunday that he will perform at the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome on Feb. 9, 2025, as part of a collaboration between the NFL, Roc Nation, and Apple Music. The song’s cover art features a picture of creased black Airforce 1 sneakers.
“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why,” Lamar said in a statement. “They got the right one.
