Spotify has released the teaser for its mini-documentary about Kendrick Lamar‘s first trip to Ghana.

The 15-second visual sees the rapper enjoying his time in Accra, surrounded by friends and the local culture and enjoying the natural wonders the country has to offer. “First time in Ghana. I couldn’t even tell you what day it is. I’m just being in the moment,” K-Dot can be heard saying. “This life shit is all about an experience and everybody got they own different experience.”

Lamar was frequently spotted in Ghana during the release of his latest album, Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, and was seen spending time with pgLang co-founder Dave Free and playing soccer with the kids. There were also reports of an album listening party.

Watch the teaser below. The mini-documentary drops on Spotify next week.

Elsewhere in music, SZA celebrated the fifth anniversary of Ctrl by releasing a deluxe version with seven additional tracks.
