6 Music – the UK’s biggest digital radio station, with a reach of 2.47 million listeners (Rajar Q3, 2022) – announces its Top 10 Albums of the Year each November. The albums are voted for by the station’s presenters and each year the list features a broad spectrum of artists, reflecting the range of music championed by the station.
Mary Anne Hobbs, one of the many presenters who voted for Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers says: “I think it’s fair to say, it’s rare that one artist can unite the whole of the 6 Music family, with our vast diversity of tastes and preferences. But Kendrick is peerless, and with Mr Morale & The Big Steppers, he’s done it.”
Also in November, K.Dot shared a music video for “Rich Spirit,” one of many standout cuts from Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers.
In the visual, Kendrick rocks a few different outfits and moves his way through a lavish home, at one point dialing up an old-school phone with a cord.
It was also announced in November that Lamar received eight nominations for the forthcoming Grammy Awards.
In October Kendrick Lamar again had another incredibly successful year at The Hip-Hop BET Awards. Altogether, Kendrick took home six awards, the most of anyone nominated this year.
