TDE's CEO Reveals Label Released Secret Album From New Artist in 2016

by HHL Editors

In 2016, TDE released albums from Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q, Isaiah Rashad, Lance Skiiiwalker and Ab-Soul.

That's five albums. Or so we thought.

Late last night, TDE CEO Anthony "Top Dawg" Tiffith revealed that the label actually dropped six albums in '16. And he did so in the form of a quiz which will be answered sometime next year.

i dropped 6 albums this yr. John Doe 1 n 2 both dropped. @skiiiwalker was 1 of them. do you know who the other 1 is ? i will reveal in 2017

Here's TDE's first reference to John Doe 1 n 2:

We know Lance Skiiiwalker is 1. So who is the other?

Twitter has speculated it could be Kembe X, Kamba or SiR -- who all released projects in 2016, and who've all been linked to the label.

What do you think? And you do you think not revealing your artists when they drop albums is a good marketing strategy?
