Kendrick Lamar discography
American rapper Kendrick Lamar has released four studio albums, one compilation album, one extended play (EP), five mixtapes, 65 singles (including 44 as a featured artist), three promotional singles, and 55 music videos. Lamar initially performed under the stage name K.Dot, releasing three mixtapes under that moniker: "Y.H.N.I.C. (Hub City Threat: Minor of the Year)" (2004), "Training Day" (2005), and "C4" (2009). He gained major attention after the release of his fourth mixtape "Overly Dedicated", which was released in 2010. It was Lamar's first full-length project to be released under his birth name and fared  well enough to enter the United States "Billboard" Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, where it peaked at number 72. Lamar's debut studio album "Section.80", was released on July 2, 2011, and issued on independent record label Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE). It peaked at number 113 on the US "Billboard" 200 chart. The album's lead single, "HiiiPoWeR", was released prior to the album through iTunes. In mid-2012, Lamar began promoting his second studio album and major label debut, "Good Kid, M.A.A.D City". The album's first single, "The Recipe", peaked at number 38 on the US "Billboard" Hot  R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. "Swimming Pools (Drank)", the album's lead single, peaked at number 17 on the US "Billboard" Hot 100 and became his first top 20 hit on the chart. "Good Kid, M.A.A.D City" was released in October 2012, through TDE, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records. The album received universal critical acclaim and reached number two on the "Billboard" 200. On March 16, 2015, Lamar released his third studio album, "To Pimp a Butterfly". The album was preceded by two singles, "i" and "The Blacker the Berry", which charted at numbers 39 and 66 on the US  Billboard Hot 100, respectively. "To Pimp a Butterfly" received universal critical acclaim upon release, much like its predecessor, and had global charting success, debuting at number one on the overall albums charts in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, as well as topping the US "Billboard" 200. On March 4, 2016, Lamar released "Untitled Unmastered", a compilation album containing previously unreleased demos that originated during the recording of "To Pimp a Butterfly". The compilation album gave Lamar his second chart-topping set in less than a year. On April 14, 2017, his fourth studio album, "Damn", was released  and reached number one on the "Billboard" 200, and has since been certified 3× Platinum. The album spawned the singles "Humble", "Loyalty" and "Love", which all reached the top 15 of the US "Billboard" Hot 100, with "Humble" becoming his first number-one single in the United States as a lead artist.
