American rapper Kendrick Lamar released a new song “The Heart Part 5” along with a music video on May 8, 2022, ahead of the his fifth studio album “Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers”.

The song sampled Marvin Gaye's 1976 song “I Want You”.
It was written by Kendrick Lamar, Matt Schaeffer, Johnny Kosich, Jake Kosich, L. Ware and A Ross. Produced by Beach Noise.
“As I get a little older, I realize life is perspective and my perspective may differ from yours,” Kendrick opens the song. “I want to say thank you to everyone that's been down with me. All my fans, all my beautiful fans, anyone who's ever gave me a lesson. All my people.”
The accompanying video was directed by Dave Free and Kendrick Lamar.
In the clip, Kendrick Lamar's face morphs into several deepfakes, including OJ Simpson, Will Smith, Jussie Smollett, Kobe Bryant, Kanye West, and Nipsey Hussle.
The new album is set to be released on May 13, 2022. It is his first album in five years since the 2017 album “Damn”.
