Kendrick Lamar has intensified his ongoing feud with Drake by releasing a series of provocative teaser photos from his upcoming music video for “Not Like Us.” The photos have ignited fan excitement and speculation.
A Track That Dominates
“Not Like Us,” a scathing diss track aimed at Drake, has taken the music world by storm, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and sparking widespread discussion. The anticipation for the music video grew even more after Lamar’s Juneteenth concert, “The Pop Out – Ken & Friends,” at The Forum on June 19. During the concert, Lamar performed “Not Like Us” five consecutive times, heightening the anticipation.
Guest Appearances and Symbolic Imagery
The concert featured appearances from Lamar’s Black Hippy crew and his longtime mentor, Dr. Dre. Among the teaser photos, one of the most talked-about images shows Lamar destroying an owl piñata, a clear jab at Drake’s OVO brand. The photo’s caption, “DISCLAIMER: NO OVHOES WERE HARMED DURING THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO,” fueled social media buzz about the video’s content and the escalating tensions between Lamar and Drake.
Personal Moments Amidst the Feud
Despite the confrontational theme, the teaser photos also offer a glimpse into Lamar’s personal life. One image shows Lamar with his longtime partner Whitney Alford and their two children, hinting that the video will provide a balanced portrayal of Lamar as both an artist and a family man.
Authentic and Gritty Aesthetic
Filmed in Lamar’s hometown of Compton, California, the “Not Like Us” video promises to maintain the raw and authentic style that characterizes Lamar’s work. Although the release date is still unknown, the video’s cultural impact is expected to be significant. Fans and critics alike are eagerly awaiting its premiere, anticipating another bold statement from one of rap’s most influential voices.
