Superstar rapper Kendrick Lamar has announced the launch of a limited-edition 10th Anniversary Edition of his sophomore studio album, 'good kid, m.A.A.d city.' The new release will be dressed in never-before-seen cover art, which features the same minivan that was used for the cover art of the original album. However, here it places the van against an all-black backdrop.
In addition, the limited-edition album will be released as a double LP pressed on jet black vinyl. Aside from the aesthetic changes, details regarding the album's tracklist have yet to be revealed. Of course, fans of the album can expect the same tracks as well as the album's iconic features from artists such as Dr. Dre, Drake, Jay Rock, JAY-Z, Anna Wise, Pharrell Williams, and more.
Interested consumers can purchase the 10th Anniversary Edition of good kid, m.A.A.d city on October 21 through Interscope's website.
