Kendrick Lamar once said that he stays off social media because he doesn't know how to use it. But in a new interview with The New York Times, he says staying off social media has to do with his ego.

“My social media, most of the time, is completely off,” he said. “Because I know, like, I can easily smell my own sh*t … Like, I’m not one of those dudes that be, like, Oh, yeah, I know how good I am, but I also know the reason why I’m so good is because God’s blessed me with the talent to execute on the talent ... The moment that you start getting lost in your ego, that’s when you start going down.”

K Dot talked about his acclaimed Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers album as well, which has received eight Grammy nominations and he called it his most personal work to date.

“I’ve never expressed myself the way I expressed myself on this album,” he explained. “From the moment I started picking up a pen and started freestyling. This was the moment that I was trying to get to without even knowing at the time.”

As 2022 wraps up, where would you put Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers on the top-albums-of-the-year list?
