A note at the bottom of the letter added: “Appreciate Your Patience.”

The official announcement of Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers arrives months after Lamar had given fans an update on the forthcoming album last August. In a note shared on his website, Oklama.com, K.Dot noted that the new record would be his last with longtime label, TDE: “ I feel joy to have been a part of such a cultural imprint after 17 years. The Struggles. The Success. And most importantly, the Brotherhood. May the Most High continue to use Top Dawg as a vessel for candid creators. As I continue to pursue my life’s calling.”

At the time, though, Lamar didn’t provide any specific details about the LP. Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers will be coming in as Lamar’s fifth studio album and first in five years, following his last release, Damn, released in 2017.
