[MP3] Listen to Tracks from Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers Album

Five years in the making (or is it three according to the lyrics of “Worldwide Steppers”?) it’s finally here! So what are your favorite tracks now that Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers is out in the wild??! A few of ours: “Die Hard” featuring Blxst and Amanda Reifer is the best Drake song Aubrey never recorded; “Father Time” featuring Sampha; “We Cry Together” featuring Taylour Paige; “Auntie Diaries” and “Mother I Sober” featuring Beth Gibbons of Portishead (yes, you read that right!). The joke of it all: “The Heart Part 5” is not on the album (but that’s in the spirit of this series, right??)

Hit the jump to listen to the whole album FREE (but ad-supported) on SoundCloud. And finally, shout out to Canadian producer, Boi-1da for his work on “N95” and “Silent Hill” featuring Kodak Black.
