Rap artist Kendrick Lamar has recently confirmed his engagement to longtime girlfriend, Whitney Alford in an interview with The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1.

"Yeah, definitely," Lamar states, "I'm loyal to the soul."

The Grammy winning rapper has for the most part been very private with his social life, but he has brought up his girlfriend in certain instances.

"She's been here since Day 1," he told the New York Times in 2014.

"Everybody that's been around me has been around since Day 1 and I can't change that. I don't change for nobody," he continued to say on Power 105.1, "People that have been by your side - you're supposed to honor that."

He continued to state how important it was for him to be surrounded by "real people."

Along with news of his engagement, the rapper is currently enjoying critical success from his recently released album, 'To Pimp A Butterfly.'
