Kendrick Lamar returned Sunday night (May 8) with his newest single “The Heart Part 5.”

Serving as his first solo single in five years, The Heart Part 5 samples Marvin Gaye’s 1976 classic “I Want You,” and finds the Top Dawg Entertainment rapper using different perspectives to tackle the duality of life.

He references Kanye West’s bipolar behavior and Will Smith’s emotional outburst at the Oscars. But the biggest talking point from the track so far seems to be coming from Lamar’s third verse, which finds him rapping completely from the perspective of the late Nipsey Hussle who was murdered on March 31, 2019, when K. Dot was in Argentina for Lollapalooza.

With his verse he attempts to capture Nip’s mindset at the time, before sending a message to his killer.

“I seen the pain in your pupil when that trigger had squeezed,” he raps. “And though you did me gruesome, I was surely relieved. I completed my mission, wasn’t ready to leave. But fulfilled my days, my Creator was pleased.”

In the video co-directed by Lamar and Dave Free, K. Dot deep fakes into OJ Simpson, Kanye West, Jussie Smollet, Will Smith, Kobe Bryant and Nipsey Hussle.

Kendrick hasn’t released a solo single in five years, so fans are expectedly excited about the new release, with most taking to social media to share their excitement, as well as give credibility to Lamar’s pen game.

Check out some fan reactions below.

i admire how Kendrick Lamar constantly reminds human beings of how great he is. very unproblematic, no internet shenanigans, no past glory flag waves just pure craftsmanship. you gotta remind ni99as chale, nipa hia nkaye

I always knew Kendrick would address Nipsey’s death on record at some point. Was not expecting that. Wow.

— Justin Tinsley (@JustinTinsley) May 9, 2022

Above all else, Kendrick rapping as Nipsey felt like the closest thing we’ll ever get to closure. Art is so beautiful man

Nipsey really the epitome of an impactful legacy , the most we’ve seen in a very long time. With how fast the world is moving on from one thing to another today he’s still super relevant 🐐🏁

Might have shed a couple tears watching The Heart Part 5 video when Kendrick started rapping from Nipsey's perspective (Joyner Lucas don't get no thoughts).

The Will Smith part when he said “hurt people hurt people” >>>

Because that man is HURT. I read his book in one day and he’s been hurting for a LONG time and then all this stuff just happened.

Man, Kendrick >>>>>>
