]]>The post Beyoncé’ Drops “America Has a Problem” Remix ft. Kendrick Lamar appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Beyoncé is currently busy with her all-stadium Renaissance World Tour, and she prepared a special surprise for those who had to miss it. She dropped a new version of “America Has a Problem”, with Lamar contributing such verses as “My momma told me that the money outgrew you / My horoscope said I’m really out my noodle, I’m troublin’, I’m puzzlin’, it’s sudoku / Say B, yes, America got a problem.”
Lamar most recently collaborated with Beyoncé on the song “Freedom” from her 2016 album Lemonade. He joined her for live performances of this song at the BET Awards and during her closing Formation Tour show and was very impressed by her work ethic.
“[I’ve learned] how particular to be about your music. She’s a perfectionist. Think about the BET performance. She was very particular – the lighting, the camera blocking, the transition from the music to the dancing. It was confirmation of something I already knew,” Lamar told The Rolling Stone.

]]>The post Kendrick Lamar Shares “We Cry Together” Short Film Starring Taylour Page appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>“We Cry Together” was directed by Jake Schreier, Dave Free, and Lamar and shot in a single take. It chronicles the inflammatory argument between a young couple, played by Lamar and Page, who trade callouts and insults in the form of the song’s lyrics before working out their differences.
Page discussed the process of filming the video with Hollywood Reporter, reflecting on its voyeuristic nature and the process of making it. She said there was something “vulnerable and intimate and honest” about being in the studio with Lamar and they brought that same energy to the short film.
“Kendrick and I just have a really great understanding of each other. Like, he’s so committed to the truth, and so am I… By the time we were together to shoot it, there was a level of comfortability and an energy that felt like we’re onto something here,” explained the actress.
“We Cry Together” is one of the songs featured on Lamar’s latest album Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, which came out on May 13 and became his fourth studio album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

]]>The post 2022 MTV VMAs: Lil Nas X, Jack Harlow & Kendrick Lamar Top Nominations appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow owe most of their nominations to their collaboration “Industry Baby”, which has been nominated for video and song of the year, best collaboration, direction, art direction, choreography, and visual effects. Bot Lil Nas X and Harlow are also in the running for artist of the year.
Unlike the “Industry Baby” duo, Kendrick Lamar isn’t in the running for any of the night’s main awards, but that didn’t stop him from scoring seven nominations. Most notably, his song “N95” is in the running for best hip-hop, but he also scored multiple nominations with “The Heart Part 5” and Baby Keem collaboration “Family Ties”.
The list of major contenders at this year’s MTV VMAs also includes Doja Cat and Harry Styles with six nods each, and Billie Eilish, Drake, Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, and The Weeknd with five.

]]>Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers soared to the top spot with 295,500 equivalent album units earned during its first week on the Billboard 200 chart. Billboard reports that SEA unites compromised 258,500 units, in addition to 35,500 in album sales and 1,500 in TEA units.
Lamar earned the largest week for an album with his latest studio effort. The 2022 record was previously held by Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti, who reached No. 1 with 274,000 units just last week.
Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers was released on May 13 and it marks Lamar’s first album in five years. The record features collaborations with Taylour Paige, Summer Walker, Kodak Black, and many more, and two singles “N95” and “Silent Hill” followed its release.
Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers marks Lamar’s fourth studio album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. He also soared to the top with his previous two studio albums To Pimp a Butterfly and Damn and the compilation album Untitled Unmastered.

]]>The post The Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show Was a Hip-Hop Spectacle for the Ages appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg were the first to hit the stage and they got the crowd wild with the rendition of their collaboration “The Next Episode” and 2Pac’s “California Love”. Their amazing performance was followed by “In Da Club” by 50 Cent.
One of the highlights of the evening came when Mary J. Blige hit the stage and rocked our world with an epic performance of “Family Affair” and “No More Drama”. The amazing moments kept on coming as Kendrick Lamar took the stage and infused old-school West Coast rap performance with some new sounds.
He was joined by Eminem for “Forgot About Dre”, and he went on to give us the most unforgettable moment of the entire halftime show with “Lose Yourself” and ended up taking the knee at the end of his act. The five headliners closed the show with the joined performance of “Still D.R.E.”
Super Bowl LVI took place on February 13th, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California and it saw the Los Angeles Rams win their first Super Bowl title in over two decades.

]]>Pepsi is returning as the sponsor of this year’s Super Bowl, and their VP of marketing, Todd Kaplan discussed the list of performers: “Artists like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg were at the forefront of the West Coast hip hop revolution, so to be able to bring them back to LA, where it all began alongside Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar will prove to be an epic, unforgettable celebration of the impact hip hop has today.”
The five artists have 43 Grammys and 22 no. 1 albums on the Billboard charts between them, and this will be the first time they perform by each other’s side. Jay-Z’s company Roc Nation is serving as the strategic entertainment advisor of the live performance, and they’re promising a larger-than-life performance of hits from the group’s deep collective catalog.
Super Bowl LVI will take place at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on February 13th, 2022.

]]>The post Baby Keem Recruits Kendrick Lamar Again for “Range Brothers” appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>On “Range Brothers,” Lamar delivers the second verse alongside Keem before taking the spotlight for choruses on the backend of the song. Hear the song below.
Keem and Lamar collab “Family Ties” previously debuted on No.18 at the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking Keem’s first Top 40 song in his career. This was also the return to the charts for Lamar and his highest-charted track since 2018 as pointed out by Billboard Charts’ official social media.
All three tracks featuring Lamar can be found on Baby Keem’s debut album The Melodic Blue, which came out on September 10th. Besides Lamar, the record also features appearances from Don Toliver and Travis Scott.
Since releasing his Grammy Award-winning album Damn in 2017, Kendrick Lamar has kept a rather low profile. His most recent project was curating Black Panther: The Album in 2018, after which he made sporadic guest appearances on songs from other artists.
Lamar recently teased on social media that he is working on a new album, which would serve as his last release for Top Dawg Entertainment. However, the details about the project still remain under wraps.

]]>The post Beyoncé’ Drops “America Has a Problem” Remix ft. Kendrick Lamar appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Beyoncé is currently busy with her all-stadium Renaissance World Tour, and she prepared a special surprise for those who had to miss it. She dropped a new version of “America Has a Problem”, with Lamar contributing such verses as “My momma told me that the money outgrew you / My horoscope said I’m really out my noodle, I’m troublin’, I’m puzzlin’, it’s sudoku / Say B, yes, America got a problem.”
Lamar most recently collaborated with Beyoncé on the song “Freedom” from her 2016 album Lemonade. He joined her for live performances of this song at the BET Awards and during her closing Formation Tour show and was very impressed by her work ethic.
“[I’ve learned] how particular to be about your music. She’s a perfectionist. Think about the BET performance. She was very particular – the lighting, the camera blocking, the transition from the music to the dancing. It was confirmation of something I already knew,” Lamar told The Rolling Stone.

]]>The post Kendrick Lamar Shares “We Cry Together” Short Film Starring Taylour Page appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>“We Cry Together” was directed by Jake Schreier, Dave Free, and Lamar and shot in a single take. It chronicles the inflammatory argument between a young couple, played by Lamar and Page, who trade callouts and insults in the form of the song’s lyrics before working out their differences.
Page discussed the process of filming the video with Hollywood Reporter, reflecting on its voyeuristic nature and the process of making it. She said there was something “vulnerable and intimate and honest” about being in the studio with Lamar and they brought that same energy to the short film.
“Kendrick and I just have a really great understanding of each other. Like, he’s so committed to the truth, and so am I… By the time we were together to shoot it, there was a level of comfortability and an energy that felt like we’re onto something here,” explained the actress.
“We Cry Together” is one of the songs featured on Lamar’s latest album Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, which came out on May 13 and became his fourth studio album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

]]>The post 2022 MTV VMAs: Lil Nas X, Jack Harlow & Kendrick Lamar Top Nominations appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow owe most of their nominations to their collaboration “Industry Baby”, which has been nominated for video and song of the year, best collaboration, direction, art direction, choreography, and visual effects. Bot Lil Nas X and Harlow are also in the running for artist of the year.
Unlike the “Industry Baby” duo, Kendrick Lamar isn’t in the running for any of the night’s main awards, but that didn’t stop him from scoring seven nominations. Most notably, his song “N95” is in the running for best hip-hop, but he also scored multiple nominations with “The Heart Part 5” and Baby Keem collaboration “Family Ties”.
The list of major contenders at this year’s MTV VMAs also includes Doja Cat and Harry Styles with six nods each, and Billie Eilish, Drake, Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, and The Weeknd with five. The winners will be announced at the MTV Video Music Awards on August 28 at New Jersey’s Prudential Center in Newark.

]]>The post The Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show Was a Hip-Hop Spectacle for the Ages appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg were the first to hit the stage and they got the crowd wild with the rendition of their collaboration “The Next Episode” and 2Pac’s “California Love”. Their amazing performance was followed by “In Da Club” by 50 Cent.
One of the highlights of the evening came when Mary J. Blige hit the stage and rocked our world with an epic performance of “Family Affair” and “No More Drama”. The amazing moments kept on coming as Kendrick Lamar took the stage and infused old-school West Coast rap performance with some new sounds.
He was joined by Eminem for “Forgot About Dre”, and he went on to give us the most unforgettable moment of the entire halftime show with “Lose Yourself” and ended up taking the knee at the end of his act. The five headliners closed the show with the joined performance of “Still D.R.E.”
Super Bowl LVI took place on February 13th, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California and it saw the Los Angeles Rams win their first Super Bowl title in over two decades.

]]>Pepsi is returning as the sponsor of this year’s Super Bowl, and their VP of marketing, Todd Kaplan discussed the list of performers: “Artists like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg were at the forefront of the West Coast hip hop revolution, so to be able to bring them back to LA, where it all began alongside Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar will prove to be an epic, unforgettable celebration of the impact hip hop has today.”
The five artists have 43 Grammys and 22 no. 1 albums on the Billboard charts between them, and this will be the first time they perform by each other’s side. Jay-Z’s company Roc Nation is serving as the strategic entertainment advisor of the live performance, and they’re promising a larger-than-life performance of hits from the group’s deep collective catalog.
Super Bowl LVI will take place at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on February 13th, 2022.

]]>On “Range Brothers,” Lamar delivers the second verse alongside Keem before taking the spotlight for choruses on the backend of the song. Hear the song below.
Keem and Lamar collab “Family Ties” previously debuted on No.18 at the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking Keem’s first Top 40 song in his career. This was also the return to the charts for Lamar and his highest-charted track since 2018 as pointed out by Billboard Charts’ official social media.
All three tracks featuring Lamar can be found on Baby Keem’s debut album The Melodic Blue, which came out on September 10th. Besides Lamar, the record also features appearances from Don Toliver and Travis Scott.
Since releasing his Grammy Award-winning album Damn in 2017, Kendrick Lamar has kept a rather low profile. His most recent project was curating Black Panther: The Album in 2018, after which he made sporadic guest appearances on songs from other artists.
Lamar recently teased on social media that he is working on a new album, which would serve as his last release for Top Dawg Entertainment. However, the details about the project still remain under wraps.
