Kendrick Lamar Sets the Stage Ablaze with Epic West Coast Diss Track Performance

Kendrick Lamar Sets the Stage Ablaze with Epic West Coast Diss Track Performance

Kendrick Lamar absolutely set the internet on fire this week with his jaw-dropping live performance at The Pop Out: Ken and Friends concert in Los Angeles, streamed live to millions. During the show, Kendrick performed his infamous Drake diss track, Not Like Us, not once, not twice, but a staggering five times—each rendition more electric than the last. The first run featured none other than Dr. Dre, who just moments before had wowed the crowd with Still D.R.E. and California Love. DJ Mustard came out for another round, and by the time Kendrick hit the fifth repeat, he was joined by about 30 people on stage, including YG, Steve Lacy, Schoolboy Q, Big Boy, and even NBA stars Russell Westbrook and DeMar DeRozan.

Listeners, the energy was wild, and Kendrick was sending a message—he called out anyone trying to disrespect the West Coast or, as he seemed to imply, anyone mocking or imitating rap legends. This appeared to be a direct response to Drake’s controversial use of AI-generated Tupac and Snoop Dogg vocals in his own diss, Taylor Made Freestyle, which Drake ended up removing from streaming after legal threats from Tupac’s estate.

Kendrick kicked off the concert with Euphoria—another pointed diss—and added a new punchline: “Give me Tupac’s ring back and I might give you a little respect,” referencing Drake’s million-dollar purchase of Tupac’s ring at auction. The crowd went wild at that one.

On social media, fans and industry insiders are still debating who’s really on top in this feud. Kendrick’s supporters say Not Like Us has become an instant classic, possibly even the diss track of the decade, with memes and TikTok clips spreading everywhere. Clips of Kendrick’s repetitive, boisterous “L.A. is not like you” chorus are all over Instagram and X. Meanwhile, Drake hasn’t made any public posts since Kendrick’s concert, and his last release, The Heart Part 6, didn’t seem to grab nearly as much attention compared to Kendrick’s fireworks this week.

But wait, there’s even more drama off the stage—according to new reports, a federal judge put a halt to Drake’s active defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group involving Kendrick’s Grammy-winning diss. This adds another layer to the ongoing legal, personal, and artistic chess match between the two.

This feud isn’t just personal, either—it’s a reflection of deeper trends and power struggles in hip-hop. Their rivalry started with friendly competition, soured after fallout from some collaborations, and has evolved into full-on public warfare with huge cultural and artistic implications. Fans are following every move, and the back-and-forth is making headlines well beyond the music world.
