With anticipation of his first album in five years reaching fever pitch, the one and only Kendrick Lamar today unveils his latest single The Heart Part 5 ahead of his new album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers dropping this Friday, May 13.

The fifth part of his ongoing “The Heart” series, with part 1 dating back to 2010, The Heart Part 5 is peak Kendrick, as lyrically dense and conscious as it is full of multisyllabic rhymes and undeniable vibes as he spits over a majestically chill beat featuring a Marvin Gaye sample.
