Introducing Unwrapped Vol. 9: Songs of Kendrick Lamar Reimagined, the latest installment in the groundbreaking series that fuses hip-hop and jazz. This volume features stunning instrumental renditions of fan-favorite tracks like “Not Like Us,” “Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe,” “LOYALTY,” "i," “HUMBLE,” “LOVE,” and more. Paying homage to Kendrick Lamar’s genre-defying artistry, Volume 9 reimagines his biggest hits with the Unwrapped signature blend of live instrumentation and jazz improvisation, creating a fresh yet timeless sound for both longtime fans and new listeners alike.
Joining this extraordinary project are an array of all-star musicians: virtuoso Jesus Molina on piano and synths, the dynamic Grammy-winning band Ozomatli, the groundbreaking a cappella ensemble Naturally 7, acclaimed violinist D Smoke, the electrifying Karen Briggs on violin, and the powerhouse horn sections of the Regiment Horns and the C-Town Horns. Their combined talents bring unparalleled depth and richness to this reimagining of Kendrick Lamar's most iconic works, making Unwrapped Vol. 9 an essential listening experience.
