It's safe to say that Kendrick Lamar shocked many when he announced his departure from his long time label Top Dawg Entertainment to start his own company pgLang.

His former label and Black Hippy group mate, Ab-Soul, spoke about the split with XXL and said he supports it fully.

"I always romanticized the idea of us staying together forever," said Ab-Soul, who dropped his Herbert album last month. "And I say this as Kendrick obviously being my brother, you know? I like how he put it. There’s beauty in completion. And you know, I feel like he reached his space where he felt like he needed to embark on something else. I support him in whatever. He’s incredible. He’s an incredible artist and I support it. I’m behind it 100 percent."

He continued. "[His decision to leave] just kind of went unsaid just for the sake of making sure we remember the brotherhood first. That we’re brothers first ... He’s still somebody that I can call on and vice versa. And that’s the most important thing versus us tryna get to the bottom of why he would start his own label or whatever have you. Our brotherhood is more important to me personally."

On another note, are you still holding out for new Black Hippy songs or have you let that go?
