Kendrick Lamar is unwavering in his statements and ready to back them up with evidence. In the legendary exchange he had with Drake earlier this year — an exchange nearly 11 years in the making — Lamar was accused of living away from his family in New York. Drake also accused one of Lamar’s kids of belonging to Dave Free, Lamar’s longtime business partner. He also accused Lamar of being abusive to his longtime fiancée Whitney Alford.
Lamar responded to the accusations in his response tracks and called out Drake for hiding another child — an 11-year-old daughter to be exact. Lamar claims Drake has inherited his tendency to prioritize himself over his kids from his father, Dennis Graham, who Drake has previously rapped wasn’t always the most present father in his life growing up.
To support the claim there’s no trouble in Lamar’s personal life, Alford and her children attended Lamar’s “Ken & Friends Popout” concert in Inglewood, California on June 19, which Free also helped put together. In Lamar’s final diss track of the back-and-forth, “Not Like Us,” it now appears his family will also make a cameo in the music video.

Clips of Lamar recording the music video in Compton, California also went viral with potential cameos from Thundercat, YG, Roddy Ricch, Jay Rock, ScHoolboy Q, Ab-Soul, Top Dawg and DJ Mustard.
The video still doesn’t have a release date, but is expected to be “coming soon.”
