He'll go down the GOAT. Dude is dangerous and just getting started. Hopefully 2020 is the release of his next album. I heard it's going to be more rock influenced also.

Mike Will said about it: With "DNA.," he [kendrick] went the whole way [through] and then he just started rapping a cappella. He said, 'I just want to see if you can put some drums around this.' I said, 'Man, hell yeah.' But he was going so hard; that man was rapping so crazy. Just imagine him a cappella rapping the second half of "DNA." and I had to build a beat around that. I didn't want the beat to just sound like a regular boom-clap, boom-clap. I wanted that s*** to sound just as crazy. I wanted it to sound like he's battling the beat.
