Kendrick Lamar – hey now (Official Audio)

The hip-hop scene in 2024 was dominated by the beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake.

As the clear, commanding victor, Kendrick Lamar surprised the world with the album GNX, and this track comes from that release.

Over a minimalist beat characteristic of producer Mustard, the song plays like a triumphant anthem, featuring a guest appearance by Dody6.

Reading the lyrics, the setting appears to be October, as if a champion who has endured a long battle is savoring his victory amid the quiet of autumn.

The track became a hit, reaching the Top 5 on the U.S.

charts dated December 7, 2024.

It’s the kind of song that reveals a different depth when you listen to it on a long autumn night drive or when you want to sit alone and reflect.
