“Y’all got until April the 7th to get your shit together.”

So, that’s what the “IV” means.

Early this morning, Kendrick Lamar cleared his Instagram and put up one picture: the one you see above, a picture showing “IV.”

Most assumed the “IV” represented Kendrick dropping his fourth studio album.

Turns out we were off.

Moments ago, Kung-Fu Kenny tweeted out the link to “The Heart Part 4,” what we assume is the first single from his new album. And yes, we know a new Kendrick LP is coming soon because he talked to T Magazine about making an album centered on God recently. (Also, because he told other rappers they have “until April 7th to get their sh*t togther” on the track.)

Interesting note, First Look Friday alum, Khalid, also contributed vocals to this devastating song.

“The Heart Pt. 4” is available now on iTunes and Apple Music + check back in a few weeks when the mysterious album is out and we post our First-Take Listen review. We recommend you listen and then head to social media because we know Twitter is about to be lit.
