Father John Misty releases new song “God’s Trash” in response to Kendrick Lamar trampling on his album release

In a supremely strange coincidence, Kendrick Lamar and Father John Misty have released new albums in the same year for over a decade: 2012, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. That pattern continued today with Father John Misty’s Mahashmashana, which was followed by Lamar’s surprise releasing GNX.

With his typical dry sense of humor, FJM’s J. Tilman commented on the latest release overlap, writing on Twitter, “not now I’m furiously scribbling my seeming response to.” When someone responded, “i’m so sorry that you happened to drop on the worst possible day to drop a new album,” Tillman quipped, “it’s okay only other times it’s happened was 2012, 2015, 2017 and 2022.” (Tillman seemingly failed to recognize that the Black Panther soundtrack, which Lamar curated, came out in 2018 — the same year as Misty’s God’s Favorite Customer.)

Now, Tilman’s further marked the occasion by releasing a new song on Instagram called “God’s Trash” alongside artwork that spoofs the covers for Lamar’s and Drake’s recent diss tracks aimed at each other. “I’m waiting,” Tillman captured the Instagram post.
