Kendrick Lamar Tells Fans To “Keep Your Eye Out” For A Black Hippy Freestyle

XXL StaffPublished: April 25, 2014

As the warm weather approaches us, its time to start thinking about the trendy eye-catching style for this Spring. Last year, we saw the emergence of Versace print everywhere thanks to rappers like 2 Chainz, Migos and Riff Raff. Leopard print was another big one last year as we saw various dudes in the streets dressed from head to toe looking like cheetahs in the concrete jungle. Print patterns will continue to live in fashion, and as some come and go, others emerge as the must have print for the season. Today, XXL puts you on to the upcoming print patterns that we believe will be the new trend in the fashion world of Hip-Hop. Check out those patterns after the jump.

The Black Hippy Album could be coming soon, but might have to wait until after Kendrick Lamar drops his new album. While at New York premiere of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 MTV caught up with the good kid, m.A.A.d city rapper and here’s what he said.

"Yeah, Black Hippy, we're moving around man. They'll be getting something soon. They might get a few early freestyles or something, 'cause I know fans are heated for us."

Lamar, who appears on the movie’s lead track “It’s on Again,” is also working on his second project, which according to TDE CEO Anthony "Top Dawg" Tiffith is expected to drop this September. As for the Black Hippy project with fellow label mates Jay Rock, Ab-Soul and ScHoolboy Q, there is no set date.

"I'm in the studio now with ideas and things like that and just seeing where it takes me. I look at each project as a journey," said the rapper of second LP. "I couldn't give a stable idea of what I'm doing, but it will definitely be a deal." –Chris M. Garner
