American rapper, Kendrick Lamar has broken the records by winning the Pulitzer Prize for Music for his album, DAMN making him the first rapper and the first non-classical or jazz artist to receive the honour.
The Pulitzer board announced Lamar’s selection on Monday, calling the 2017 LP “a virtuosic song collection unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African American life.”
DAMN is Lamar’s fourth studio album, the latest in a series of acclaimed and sonically eclectic records.
The LP, which has reached double-platinum sales status, was nominated for Album of the Year and won Best Rap Album at this year’s Grammy awards ceremony.
