The Kendrick Lamar-curated "Black Panther: The Album" is getting the vinyl and cassette treatment.

We have been blessed with incredible music thus far in 2018 and it is set to continue with major releases planned all throughout the year. One drop in particular that impressed nearly everyone was the Kendrick Lamar-curated Black Panther soundtrack. The founder of TDE, Anthony Tiffith, tweeted out that the acclaimed project would be available for purchase in vinyl and cassette formats. Bundles featuring a t-shirt are also available here.

Ever since the film was announced, anticipation has been through the roof for tomorrow's premiere of Black Panther, a superhero movie that is so much more than just that. The web went collectively insane when news dropped that none other than Kendrick Lamar would be curating the soundtrack to the film and the success of said musical compilation has been overwhelming, as the album is expected to debut at number 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart. This rivals the success of the soundtrack from The Greatest Showman and, with the success of the scores, music and film have never been more interconnected.

A digital download is also available on the website, as well as on all major streaming platforms. The film will be released tomorrow and there will be a considerable amount of people lining up to see the Marvel release at the theater. If you're more of an analog person, you will certainly appreciate K-Dot allowing you the opportunity to cop the soundtrack on cassette and vinyl, while you can still listen digitally today.
