## Resource

AZ Chike’s major-label debut, NO REST FOR THE WICKED, drops September 18 with a stacked 14-track lineup featuring Tyler, The Creator twice and JMSN, plus production from Pharrell, Terrace Martin, and Hit-Boy. Early buzz is heating up around “Packed Up,” and the bold red album art signals his aggressive new direction. Rumors swirl that Kendrick Lamar was set to appear — possibly even with diss tracks — but he’s officially absent from the tracklist, leaving fans speculating and wondering what went down.
