There’s also the matter of his headlining Day N Vegas set in a few weeks, which will hear him perform a career-spanning set from Section.80 to DAMN.
K-Dot’s upcoming album was confirmed to be his final record with TDE:
“As I produce my final TDE album, 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.
There’s beauty in completion. And always faith in the unknown.
Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I’ve prayed for you all.
See you soon enough.”
