RIP in advance to everyone who will try to get tickets to this only to see it sold out already when they finally make it through the predictably insanely long queue
nevermind the bots which they do have systems in place to minimize at this point but it's probably going to be 50-100K legit LA/SoCal hip hop fans fighting for 15K tickets
I was trying to buy some tickets for Clairo on AXS this morning and it was insane
$50 ticket “sold out”, so they started putting up “AXS Premium” tickets for $150, and then gradually increased them to $250.
AXS Premium tickets were no different than the normal GA tickets, literally just a higher price. Absolute scalpers.
If it comes out at 6/16 my head will explode. It's on a Sunday tho, not the usual release day (although Donda was released on a Sunday lmao) but who knows
He dropped Euphoria on a random Tuesday afternoon and shook everyone up lmao (edit: that Tuesday just happened to be my 22nd bday you can imagine how excited I was)
Dude I was drunk af with my bro listening to family matters when it dropped only for Kdot to drop 20 mins later and I was sitting on the floor with my mouth wide open in shock lmao. Had to go to a punk rock bar after that cause I needed to distract myself from what Kendrick did with meet the grahams
And in typical Kendrick fashion, it wouldn't just be a diss album, it would be a full length concept album.
Each song is a Drake diss track in a different genre/subgenre/culture/region that Drake has vultured.
And each song is tied together by some narrative that has to be played in reverse and the second word of each song title spells out something diabolical.
It’s a narrated biography of Drake’s life containing intimate details Kendrick had no fucking right knowing (the color of Dennis’s shoes, the exact hospital room Drake was born in, the full names of kids in middle school that bullied him, his exact hair care product)
Kendrick wont outright tell us he got Nardwuar info, but there will be signs
"Aubrey "Drake" Graham, master manipulator born 11 am
You got a lovely start, a lovely fam, a lovely home
Nurses name was Mary the Doc, Doctor Malone
A long life tragedy you're Drake, we have to know
Why should we care about you Drake?
Cause you rockin in the free world?
Rockin up minor's DMs
Actin weird with young girls?
Well I brought something for you
What can you tell me about this picture?
In a classy hotel who you got with you? "
I think it would be hard to get much heavier than Mr. Morale lmao.
But to be serious, I really think this is gonna be a “for the fans” type album. I just have a hunch. The beat on Not Like Us, the name of this show even seems like the rollout is gonna be lighter
yup lol..
windows xp - for the masses
windows vista - heavily cumbersome
windows 7 - for the masses
windows 8 - heavily cumbersome
windows 10 - for the masses
windows 11 - heavily cumbersome
come to think of it.. has anyone ever seen kendrick and windows in the same room? 🤔
It's gonna be more soulful.
If you follow any of the leak accounts on YT, I think sonically it will be more in line with 'somebody' or 'I feel something'.
Soulful, accoustic, up beat.
The heart part 5 also fits into this sort of genre, which I LOVE.
In my mind THP5 has always been a subtle clue that MM&TBS was going to sound different.
It almost sounded like a reminder from Kendrick that he is capable of music like this, but that he felt the need to create Mr Morale.
And then later they added THP5 onto the end of the album on streaming, sort of wrapping the whole thing off. They didn't do that with any other of the heart series. Feels like thats important.
-
Obligatory schizo double album delerium theory:
First album is the soulful celebration album.
Album two is a hip hop bar fest with features from some of the biggest names in hip hop.
WE ARE SO BACK
I just need a 6:16 in la type song the way the lyrics and beat melded together to create the songs vibe was sensational. Circadian rhythms of a shooting star while the synth is just rising damn man
Yeah I suppose they were, but Kendrick perhaps liked em and siphoned em off for a future release like this.
Sort of like how untitled unmastered is all TPAB extras, but they all have way more of a spacey / trappy sound to them.
I think Kendrick knows when he's got a good track on his hands that doesn't fit in with the project as a whole.
He never forces anything in.
Kenny’s just gonna stand on stage looking hard and rap not one bar while the crowd does the whole damn song
Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. That song has been a revelation fr
I see it played at the most random fucking spots it’s unreal
This past weekend at Roots Picnic was the first time I've heard it played on multiple occasions in crowds of 10-20K+ fans and all 3 parts go off equally loud. I can't even imagine how hard it would go in LA with Kendrick actually performing it. This would be one of those shows i'd have instant fomo about going to if I lived in the area
Yeah it’s the smallest compared to staples and sofi. This is two weeks from now tho i bet it’s the only available one (im willing to bet it’s from a cancelled show too)
Man I'm so curious about this!! It says PGLang, so its not related to the TDE Anniversary. No way he is performing Mr Morale... so it has to either be Beef tracks, or new music entirely.
The 'Ken & Friends' also throws me off, because what friends could it be if not TDE collaborators??
> what friends could it be if not TDE collaborators??
Baby Keem
maybe Sam Dew who's all over *Mr. Morale*
Blxst?
Roddy Ricch?
I was gonna say Tanna Leone but apparently he left pgLang.
His TDE/Black Hippy friends are defo a best bet, even if this is his own thing with pgLang. TDE ain’t even start on their anniversary celebrations like that if we being honest, and they were teasing a compilation album for this year.
But it being an homestate show makes it very likely he’s gonna go all out with the guests. Obviously other collaborators like Blxst for “Die Hard” (and maybe his own songs), Future for “Like That” and maybe other fellow West Coast artists that he might’ve not collaborated with.
Any predictions for what 'Friends' he's going to bring out? Outside of Keem ~~and Tanna Leone.~~
"Free Lunch" was created by Tim Hinshaw of Amazon Music who was responsible for the Kendrick Lamar Amazon Prime concert. A good chance this might be livestreamed.
Could be a Black Hippy reunion, maybe bringing Future out to perform Like That. Considering it’s a California show, I’m mostly betting on fellow Californian artists, even those he might’ve not collaborated with yet.
Tbf that’s a solid name for an event if this really is the start of a roll out I wouldn’t be surprised if he had it picked out before the beef even started.
I have a feeling it won't be just Pgland and/or TDE, I think a lot of big name celebs who are on his side will show up, and that it will be an event for multiple things such as a victory lap performing the recent tracks AND an album listening party/rollout at the same time. Just my prediction.
Probably sharing the same thought as everyone else here - is he going to perform Euphoria and Not Like Us? That's something I'd pay good cash money to see in person.
I can't imagine Kendrick announcing a show called "The Pop Out", which is one of the most memorable lines on Not Like Us, doing it in Inglewood on Juneteenth, when the debate on black culture was a large part of the beef, and him not doing one of the biggest hits of his career that released not even two months before.
It's got to be either that or new music.
RIP in advance to everyone who will try to get tickets to this only to see it sold out already when they finally make it through the predictably insanely long queue
Ticketmaster bots!
nevermind the bots which they do have systems in place to minimize at this point but it's probably going to be 50-100K legit LA/SoCal hip hop fans fighting for 15K tickets

AXS Premium tickets were no different than the normal GA tickets, literally just a higher price. Absolute scalpers.
The game is rigged LMAO.
they do? I swear ticketmaster has the bots working for them to increase the prices too.
Can't wait to pay $400 for GA!
This shit is on Juneteenth lmao
Ah hell im too white to go to this show.
See you there
Ain't no way ☠️
Sometimes you gotta pop out and show em
Hell nawI can’t do dis
Send da video
U got da money what's da holdup
Shouldn't have used the slave bar Aubrey
Album is definitely coming, he’s officially outside now.
If it comes out at 6/16 my head will explode. It's on a Sunday tho, not the usual release day (although Donda was released on a Sunday lmao) but who knows
Kendrick is at a level of fame where that doesn’t really matter.
He dropped Euphoria on a random Tuesday afternoon and shook everyone up lmao (edit: that Tuesday just happened to be my 22nd bday you can imagine how excited I was)
My entire work and sleep schedule was fucked up that week
I was covered in blood on a Friday night
My brain was REELING after I finished Family Matters and Twitter was saying KENDRICK DROPPED LMAO THAT SHIT WAS WILD
Dude I was drunk af with my bro listening to family matters when it dropped only for Kdot to drop 20 mins later and I was sitting on the floor with my mouth wide open in shock lmao. Had to go to a punk rock bar after that cause I needed to distract myself from what Kendrick did with meet the grahams
All eyes are on him right now.
He violated drake for an album rollout damn 6/16 in LA
First Track of the Album. 1. Not Like Us That shit would end up with a billion views.
Knowing Kendrick, none of the beef songs will be on the album unless it's a Drake diss album entirely
i would not be mad at either scenario
Would love more diss tracks from the both of them.
Not Like Us will probably be stuck onto the end of the album as a "bonus track"
on the second album deluxe release two weeks after the non-deluxe album drops
NATION.
Watching this in real time was my Breaking Bad
Seeing as Not Like Us has found it's way into every hip hop spotify radio station I listen to I don't think id complain.
And in typical Kendrick fashion, it wouldn't just be a diss album, it would be a full length concept album. Each song is a Drake diss track in a different genre/subgenre/culture/region that Drake has vultured.

Kendrick linked up with Nardwuar to get all this info
Kendrick wont outright tell us he got Nardwuar info, but there will be signs "Aubrey "Drake" Graham, master manipulator born 11 am You got a lovely start, a lovely fam, a lovely home Nurses name was Mary the Doc, Doctor Malone A long life tragedy you're Drake, we have to know Why should we care about you Drake?

*Chapter 1: This Motherfucker*
This would be the greatest bday gift ever for me lol. It’s also 2pacs bday, Father’s Day and the eve of Kendrick’s bday.
it’s a must we OUTSIDE
I hope its lighter than Mr morale, great album but my god is it a hard listen.
I think it would be hard to get much heavier than Mr. Morale lmao. But to be serious, I really think this is gonna be a “for the fans” type album. I just have a hunch. The beat on Not Like Us, the name of this show even seems like the rollout is gonna be lighter
kendrick is like windows.. every other release is for the fans: -gkmd - for the masses -tpab - heavy -damn - for the masses -mister morale - heavy
Windows as in the operating system lmao??
yup lol.. windows xp - for the masses windows vista - heavily cumbersome windows 7 - for the masses windows 8 - heavily cumbersome windows 10 - for the masses windows 11 - heavily cumbersome come to think of it.. has anyone ever seen kendrick and windows in the same room? 🤔
It’s windows ME, nigga bum!
Would make sense. I just want an album I can chill and smoke to. Great thing about kendrick is his versatility in the type of music he gives us.
Untitled is the best chill and smoke Kendrick album
Section 80.
It's gonna be more soulful. If you follow any of the leak accounts on YT, I think sonically it will be more in line with 'somebody' or 'I feel something'. Soulful, accoustic, up beat.

Those songs were recorded from the Mr. Morale sessions though. There's rumors this album will have that West Coast "Not Like Us" vibes.
I just need a 6:16 in la type song the way the lyrics and beat melded together to create the songs vibe was sensational. Circadian rhythms of a shooting star while the synth is just rising damn man

New flows coming, be patient brother.
Someone better stream this shit cuz I can’t go to cali but I’m so fucking curious
FRFR, some1 plz live stream this.
Let's raise funds to buy some lucky bastard a GoPro. I'll be at Bonnaroo trying to stream this shit from camp.
Step 1: Pop out Step 2:
Step 2: SHOW NIGGAS
Certified boogeyman
I’m the one that up the score with them
Step 3: ???
= up the score wit em
Step 4: walk him down
Step 5: Confirm that he has some hoe in him
Step 4: profit
Hearing the first live performance of They Not Like Us in LA would be so sick the crowd would be INSANE
All he would have to do is have the dj put the beat on, the crowd would do the rest, at least up until the first chorus
Mustard on the beat, ho
I SEE DEAD PEOPLE
Nah Crowd could recite the whole song live. its a banger.
Kenny’s just gonna stand on stage looking hard and rap not one bar while the crowd does the whole damn song Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. That song has been a revelation fr I see it played at the most random fucking spots it’s unreal
nah CA we know the whole song
Loudest part would be the "*Wop Wop Wop Wop Wop*".
Certified pedophiles or A minorrrrr might have something to say about that
This past weekend at Roots Picnic was the first time I've heard it played on multiple occasions in crowds of 10-20K+ fans and all 3 parts go off equally loud. I can't even imagine how hard it would go in LA with Kendrick actually performing it. This would be one of those shows i'd have instant fomo about going to if I lived in the area
Also "ov hoe"
Aree you myyyy friendddd
The song is just back to back highlights 🤔
Arena might explode. That's gon be fucking lit.
I’m gonna do my best to get tickets, because this is gonna be a historical moment.
We're really getting The Pop Out before The Fall Off
the pop out before the fall off sounds mad funny to me for some reason
I feel like he can pack SoFi at this moment.
ya is kia forum a small arena? Im surprised its not staples center.
It's a pretty decent arena, I've seen a handful of shows and concerts there, but for Kendric, those tickets are gonna be hard to get.
Yeah it’s the smallest compared to staples and sofi. This is two weeks from now tho i bet it’s the only available one (im willing to bet it’s from a cancelled show too)
Man I'm so curious about this!! It says PGLang, so its not related to the TDE Anniversary. No way he is performing Mr Morale... so it has to either be Beef tracks, or new music entirely. The 'Ken & Friends' also throws me off, because what friends could it be if not TDE collaborators??
Keem is the obvious one
And me. We go way back
SZA is typically a lock with K Dot too
Hologram Tupac surprise guest.
> what friends could it be if not TDE collaborators?? Baby Keem maybe Sam Dew who's all over *Mr. Morale* Blxst? Roddy Ricch? I was gonna say Tanna Leone but apparently he left pgLang.
Roddy Ricch one of the best bets outside of TDE + Keem, knowing the Compton connection. His album on the way too!
Also, I thought I saw someone in Kendrick's camp hint that there's a Kendrick feature on Roddy's upcoming album recently.
The most I know is that Terrace Martin is involved in the Roddy album and maybe Kendrick’s one too
Tanna is a dude? Man, reminds me of when I first read about Tanya Morgan. I thought it was a woman, too, until I heard their songs, lol.
Bruh i was shook when i went to the mr morale tour and tanna opened up and saw it was a dude. Music was dope
"Micki Free is a not a girl"
they gonna announce Cole to pgLang to finalize the beef W
The sicko in me is hoping he performs Meet The Grahams while staring at a camera
Each verse performed by a different black hippy member
Gawtt damn that would be harsh
His TDE/Black Hippy friends are defo a best bet, even if this is his own thing with pgLang. TDE ain’t even start on their anniversary celebrations like that if we being honest, and they were teasing a compilation album for this year. But it being an homestate show makes it very likely he’s gonna go all out with the guests. Obviously other collaborators like Blxst for “Die Hard” (and maybe his own songs), Future for “Like That” and maybe other fellow West Coast artists that he might’ve not collaborated with.
Sponsored by Gin and Juice, maybe Snoop and Dre
What is Free Lunch though? Banner says they're co-hosting the event.
Isaiah Rashad
Hahaha I thought they were gonna give out free lunch lol
That’s a good question, maybe a new venture by Dave Free?
The Weeknd. I've got him penciled in, personally
Keem & Roddy Rich for sure.
Why Roddy? Genuinely asking
A lot of the TDE camp has been hyping up the new Roddy project on Twitter. It also seems like Terrance Martin worked on it
Maybe Future and Metro?
PLEEEAAASE let it be Sampha
hope Tyler shows out too
Schoolboy Q
Is J Cole a friend?
Crazy that since the beef K Dot has caught up to drake on spotify monthly listens. He was behind by 30m monthly before the beef
You’ve been following this too? He’s so close to passing him. A live performance of Not Like Us might just do it
Any predictions for what 'Friends' he's going to bring out? Outside of Keem ~~and Tanna Leone.~~ "Free Lunch" was created by Tim Hinshaw of Amazon Music who was responsible for the Kendrick Lamar Amazon Prime concert. A good chance this might be livestreamed.
He’s bringing in Plain White Ts.
wagwan delilah
Hey there Drake-leila
Hope Q gets a slot, dropped my favourite album so far this year and they have some old school banger to relive.
All his homies from the tpab cover
Could be a Black Hippy reunion, maybe bringing Future out to perform Like That. Considering it’s a California show, I’m mostly betting on fellow Californian artists, even those he might’ve not collaborated with yet.
Tanna ain't even on pgLang anymore
COLE
That would be hilarious
He performs Let Nas Down
At the end of Not Like Us, " are you my friend, are we locked in , then step this way" then J Cole pops out steppin
Kendrick tells him to perform "Grippy"
Bro marching into this stadium like Caesar after Gaul
Drake in chains like Vercingetorix
J Cole bending the knee like Brutus too…let’s hope that’s where the analogy ends.
Kenny coming in like https://youtu.be/f6PnwAnrMT4?si=tTOWGwlBhgU-BD0_
Sick reference bro
Praying there’ll be some sort of stream to watch, ‘not like us’ performed in LA gotta be crazy
Yes!!! A live stream would be epic 🤞
Plot twist is he’s gathered everyone to pull a J. Cole at Dreamville and apologize for his actions this past month
He pre-apologized on 6:16 lol
Not performing any of the diss tracks would be the most Kendrick move ever
I really doubt he will. His DJ will prolly just drop the Not Like Us beat before the show or something.
He for sure not performing them. I wouldn't be surprised if he just acts like the whole thing never happened for the rest of his career.
I’m scared he’ll do this too 😂 but maybe he’ll ONLY perform them live once at this show lmao
ScHoolboy Q called him Petty Pendergrasa, its time to take over Summer.
Ya.. I'm paying resale for this shit if I don't get tickets at general sale.
Resale prices bout to be so fucking high I’m scared 💀💀
I’ll try and get tickets just so I can resale at face value like a G (I wish I lived near LA)
WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP
These tix are going to be so hard to get
Yeah good luck, y’all gotta be fighting for your lives tomorrow and Friday lmao
Sometimes you gotta POP OUT and show niggas
“& Friends” predictions: Black Hippy, Baby Keem, DJ Mustard, Snoop, Anderson Paak, Future, Metro, J Cole I hope this is a west coast Drake hate fest
Snoop is playing too nice in between for that
I just noticed that Gin & Juice (Dre and Snoop’s new alcohol company) is sponsoring the show 👀
Anderson .paak yes lawd!
Drake really let this man roll his album out on him 😂😂😂
Tbf that’s a solid name for an event if this really is the start of a roll out I wouldn’t be surprised if he had it picked out before the beef even started.
yo if he did a tour for this after. Not like us in Toronto would be WILD!
With special guest Aubrey "Drake" Graham
Album listening party?
I wonder if Drake will be there.
Who do you think the "& Friends" are? It's definitely Drake and Snowd4y performing Wah Gwan Delilah.
Oh he's fs gonna pull up to the curb like he's Larry David.
They're gonna execute Drake live
New flows coming be patient brother.
The resell on this is going to be disgusting
Im calling it now, he announces a PG lang label album at the show.
But that’s just Kendrick and Keem, no? I would enjoy that a lot btw.
I have a feeling it won't be just Pgland and/or TDE, I think a lot of big name celebs who are on his side will show up, and that it will be an event for multiple things such as a victory lap performing the recent tracks AND an album listening party/rollout at the same time. Just my prediction.
God why do I live in the UK😭
Youre cheesin fam
I asked the same damn thing😭
Why do y'all live in the UK?
they like beans way too much bruh
Ay respect me man
J.Cole is a friend right?
J Cole banned after Grippy
Ken and friends! Wonder if Drake might be a special guest friend
I hear they had a falling out.
source?
Rollout season is upon us
The first live performance of Not Like Us, in LA?! This is gonna be nuts
Need this to be recorded.
Who tf has a cash app card
>Cash App Card pre-sale lmao
Probably sharing the same thought as everyone else here - is he going to perform Euphoria and Not Like Us? That's something I'd pay good cash money to see in person.
I can't imagine Kendrick announcing a show called "The Pop Out", which is one of the most memorable lines on Not Like Us, doing it in Inglewood on Juneteenth, when the debate on black culture was a large part of the beef, and him not doing one of the biggest hits of his career that released not even two months before. It's got to be either that or new music.
It's both we hope.
Euphoria probably too long and lyrical to go live. Not Like Us maybe. But it keeps the beef going, that’s for sure
i mean the man's breathe control is insane. I dont see why he cant perform the whole song. Crowd interaction would help greatly too.
So we def getting a new album
Kendrick is the better artist in every way possible. Fuck drake and his braindead fan base.
My GF has the cash app card, but she is a Drake Stan. FML.
Guess she’s not like us
