If you haven’t already heard, Kendrick Lamar was named ‘Man of the Year’ by GQ Magazine recently. While TDE’s owner, Anthony Tiffith, took issue with the cover story written in honor of the recognition, Schoolboy Q struck a different tone by releasing this single, “Man of the Year” today. The celebratory track is an ode to how tight the TDE crew is and is an appropriate ode to the year Kendrick has had and the positioning Tiffith and TDE have done to place themselves firmly in the center of anything that happens in hip-hop today.
