You can listen to the track "All the Stars," by Kendrick Lamar and SZA below:
Interestingly enough, the track titled "Redemption Interlude" is lacking artist credits, which is leading many to think that a member of music royalty will be gracing the album with their storied talent. Who do you think it could be? Stevie Wonder, perhaps? I suppose that we'll just have to wait until February 6th, when the BLACK PANTHER album drops, to find out.
BLACK PANTHER, which is poised to become one of the successful movies in Marvel history, will arive in theaters on February 16th. Be sure to get your tickets in advance if you plan to see the film during its opening weekend. I have it on good authority that they're going like hot cakes, and you don't want to be left out of the loop.
