Kendrick Lamar Unveils Cover Art of New Single "i" / Premieres Next Week?
So it’s not titled “I (Love Myself)" as some websites claimed yesterday. Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar announced on Wednesday afternoon (September 17) that the true title of his new single is just “i” - without the (Love Myself) tag. He also revealed to his millions of fans on social media the cover for “i” (see above). The simple photo shows two African-American men, one dress in blue and the other in red, making the heart figure with his hands. The song title and Kendrick's name are written in white in the middle.
“i” is to serve as the lead single from Lamar’s much-anticipated second major label album - follow-up to 2012's platinum-certified "Good Kid, M.A.A.D City" - which is expected to arrive in stores stateside later in 2014 via Interscope Records. Rumour has it that "i" will premiere on radios on September 23 (see below).
Big singles coming out of Interscope in the next few weeks, as their promo site just revealed: Fergie Monday, Kendrick Tuesday, Gwen 10/6.
