That's just him crying. They've put out 2 albums for him with a 3rd slated for the end of this year.
Kendrick, multiple albums.
Q, multiple albums.
SZA...an artist no one really cares about...nothing? Why? Because Interscope rather put out albums from the 3 above than her.
Let's blame Punch tho!

No one is blaming Punch breh
Its Top Dawg who's the idiot.
She specifically called out Punch in her tweet.
Top Dawg and Punch don't call all the shots at TDE, Interscope does.
I didn't see the tweet, it didn't show up for me my bad
But how is Interscope calling the shots when only Kendrick and Q only ones signed to Interscope?

....isn't this a female singer??
TDE takes an approach that does not work for their artists. If you're gonna be low-key/anti-media your artists gotta have mainstream draw/potential to balance that out.
They're pretty bad though. They should have had at least two group albums by now.Yea cuz this is the first label when some third string guy takes off because others are in front of em.
This is like saying Aftermath wasn't shyt because King T took off for the exact same reason
TDE is one strange label...
They've got a roster of some of the most talented artists in the WORLD but the strategy just seems...off sometimes. Kendrick and Q are good but Jay Rock really should've dropped an album after GKMC when the Money Trees/Black Hippy hype was at its apex.
Soul's album should've been tweaked to perfection. It really sounded like two different albums mashed together.
Isaiah Rashad should've dropped 1-2 mix-tapes before The Sun's Tirade is a good album, but other than Cilvia Demo he has no catalog. You can't build a fan base without catalog. Big Sean, Wale, J.Cole, Drake, EVERY new generation rapper has built their reputation on solid mixtape runs, INCLUDING Kendrick Lamar. I'm not even suggesting you need to flood the market with music, but 1-2 well constructed and expertly timed Mixtapes wouldn't do anything but HELP him build buzz

Did you get a blank post at first too? It's been doing that to me too where I don't see the tweet / ig post and then I refresh, it shows up.
TDE is under the Interscope umbrella, they basically snatched up the whole thing.
Nah, but I think shes related to Smoke DZA.
She said she named herself that because RZA is an inspiration to her.
