GNX (album)
Updated: 12/11/2025, 12:29:01 AM Wikipedia source
GNX is the sixth studio album by American rapper Kendrick Lamar. It was surprise-released on November 22, 2024, through PGLang and Interscope Records. The album features guest appearances from SZA, Dody6, Lefty Gunplay, Wallie the Sensei, Siete7x, Roddy Ricch, AzChike, Hitta J3, YoungThreat, and Peysoh. Lamar produced the album primarily with Sounwave and Jack Antonoff; other producers include Mustard, Sean Momberger, and Kamasi Washington. Titled after the Buick Regal model, GNX is Lamar's first album to be released after his departure from longtime labels Top Dawg Entertainment and Aftermath Entertainment. GNX was released to widespread acclaim: multiple critics hailed it as a successful reimagination of West Coast hip-hop and one of the best albums of 2024; a few otherwise thought that the album was not as groundbreaking or too polished. The album was Lamar's fifth number one on the US Billboard 200 chart. It also topped the charts in numerous countries, including Canada, Netherlands, Sweden, Australia, Denmark, and the UK; and top five in Poland, Nigeria, France, and Hungary. GNX was supported by four singles: the Billboard Hot 100 number ones "Squabble Up" and "Luther", the number two hit "TV Off", and "Peekaboo". Lamar and SZA performed live at the Super Bowl LIX halftime show and are currently embarking on the co-headlining Grand National Tour in 2025 to promote the album as well as SZA's Lana.
