Lamar has kept a low profile this year, though a series of festival headline slot were pulled as a result of the global pandemic. His most recent studio album, DAMN. was released in 2017. A year later he followed it up with Black Panther the Album. The Marvel soundtrack earned the Compton rapper an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song for “All the Stars” and a Grammy. This week it was revealed that he has signed an exclusive global deal with Universal Music Publishing Group.
