Kendrick Lamar has unleashed his latest track 'The Blacker The Berry'. Listen below.

Taking a literal polar opposite to poppy tones of 'I', it jumps into full on hip hop territory with a rolling break and ragga vocals. It features Lamar on top form, with extended verses that get carried away in their own density of meaning. Top stuff.

Meanwhile, Kendrick took home the award for best rap performance for 'I' at the Grammy awards on Sunday night. The other big winners of the night included Gigwise favourite St Vincent taking home Best Alternative Music Album for her self-titled record and Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2 being crowned Best Rap Album.
