In 2012, Kendrick Lamar’s Grammy-nominated, radio-dominating major label debut, good kid, m.A.A.d city, was immediately measured by the same yardstick as earth-shattering albums like Nas’ Illmatic and Kanye West’s The College Dropout. However, besides a Grammy-winning standalone single, a bevy of feature performances, a missed September 2014 release date and new single, “The Blacker the Berry,” there hasn’t been a whole lot of concrete information out there regarding Lamar’s March 23rd-bound return. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Lamar tells contributing editor Josh Eels that his third album will not be untitled or named Untitled. Instead, it’s called To Pimp a Butterfly, a play on Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird.
