Thank you. Writing is such an isolated artform. It’s just you, your thoughts, and a laptop. I’m *legit* surprised that so many people are saying this. For real. These are heavy accolades and I’m truly honored. https://t.co/pmk8mGfTn0

It's not clear whether the rapper will be involved in the project.
The biography will document the ‘DAMN‘ artist’s “rise to rap superstardom”.
Whether through his music or interviews, Lamar is undisputed as one of the few hip hop artists today that is publicly promoting and pushing for the resolution of political issues relating to the black community.
