Kendrick Lamar drops music video for Drake diss track ‘Not Like Us’
Kendrick Lamar rang in the 4th of July by dropping his new music video for his ever-popular Drake diss track “Not Like Us.”
The video opens with a cameo from Tommy the Clown, and Tommy’s krumping dancers are featured throughout the film.
The video is also full of owl imagery, a clear nod to Drake’s lifestyle brand’s OVO emblem… with Kendrick at one point wearing a live owl on his arm, a caged owl, and Lamar throwing punches at a giant piñata in the shape of the horn…while “no OVHoes were injured during the making of this video” flashed on the screen.
Other cameos include Mustard wearing a Toronto Blue Jays hat, as well as Lamar’s fiancée and their children.
The city of Compton was the other big star in the footage, with shots of Tam’s Burgers and scores of fans gathering at City Hall.

As we previously reported… last month the shoot brought out a huge crowd who just wanted to catch a glimpse of the homegrown rapper, who was in the middle of the madness.
Kendrick is possibly the hottest West Coast rapper in the game right now…just look at his June show which united both rappers and even rival gangs – yes, the dude has a ton of influence.

There were no disruptions during the filming of the footage – just people getting together and having a great time. Like we said, there was one heavy police presence to make sure the party doesn’t get out of hand.
