Kendrick Lamar Fans Notice That He Credited His Barber In “Not Like Us” Music Video

Somehow, fans are still searching for new details concerning Kendrick Lamar, specifically his “Not Like Us” music video that came out months ago. Even though we’re as invested in the Drake battle as anyone else, die-hards must really be feeling desperate for new talking points or album hints if we’re out here shouting our barbers out. Fans noticed that K.Dot included barber Chris Donato Smith in the credits for the visual, along with the rest of the massive team that worked on it. In fact, if you look in the replies of the post below, some folks are under the impression that this is actually his personal barber and not for the actors on set.

Also, you will find many Kendrick Lamar haters and regular social media users alike asking different variants of the same question: Why? Why is this a topic of conversation and why do we particularly care unless our name is Chris Donato Smith or one of his loved ones? Maybe it’s a result of the Drake battle discourse reaching its peak, although we can argue that happened months ago. In addition, fans are desperate for a new album, so they’re looking for hints in the most ridiculous corners. But speaking of the Drake battle discourse…

Kendrick Lamar Fans & Haters Don’t Understand Why This “Not Like Us” Barber Credit Is Relevant: See Replies

J. Cole recently threw his hat back into the ring with his new song “Port Antonio,” on which he finally addresses the Kendrick Lamar and Drake battle lyrically. Of course, he also speaks on why he deleted his Kendrick diss track and why he “pulled the plug” on his efforts. You’ve probably already seen the huge debate that this track caused, although most of it revolves around Cole’s own decisions.

As “Not Like Us” continues to dominate, Kendrick Lamar fans have a lot of other narratives and possibilities to consider. With so much to talk about, mentioning the music video’s barber is a funny detail to meme on for a bit on the Internet based on the ridiculousness of its relevance. For the love of Top, Kendrick, please drop when you feel like it’s ready. But in the meantime, Stans will probably point out your visual’s location manager next!

YK Osiris Links Up With Barber Who Had Accused Him Of Not Paying

If you remember, YK Osiris had recently found himself at war with a barber in Atlanta, named Legend. Overall, this would not be the first time Osiris has found himself at odds with someone. Especially as it pertains to money and payment. For instance, at one time or another, the singer owed Drake some cash. Moreover, one YouTuber says the artist scammed him out of thousands of dollars. As for the aforementioned barber, he had originally claimed that Osiris didn’t pay him for a haircut.

This subsequently led to an interesting fallout on social media, with many other artists trying to get involved. YK Osiris was not appreciative of this at all, and let his feelings be known. Since that time, he has also found himself at odds with Foolio, who has since gotten him involved in NBA YoungBoy drama. At this point, it feels like Osiris cannot escape the bad press. However, he did see to take a W yesterday as he went back for another haircut in ATL.

YK Osiris Calls Out Kevin Gates In Barber Beef Instagram Rant

Earlier this week one of the strangest rap beefs in recent years emerged. It started when a barber who cut YK Osiris’ hair claimed that he never paid her for the cut. “Y’all know I cut my first celebrity client, YK Osiris, last week. I charged him $150 for the cut, the cut went up, he paid me $200. He tipped me $50. No complaints but he had hit me up to come line him up last Tuesday. I charge him $100 for the lineup. This n***a hit me with the, ‘Alright, I’ma Cash App you.’ Instantly I was like… I’m like ‘I don’t think he gonna do me like that.’ It’s just $100 dollars, it’s not $100,000.” they said in an Instagram video explaining the incident.

YK Osiris responded to the situation and refuted her allegations. “She got paid. She just want clout. Give her a lil clout lol,” he claimed. While he did eventually pay the barber, before that Kevin Gates stepped up. Gates allegedly reached out to them through DMs and sent $200 through Zelle as some sort of makeup payment. That clearly rubbed YK the wrong way and he took to his Instagram story to express his disappointment. “I hate n*ggas, literally I don’t fw any of you lame ass, corny ass, n*ggas. Get that through y’all mind man. PLEASE DO. Shake my hand in public but play me on social media people wake up please I pray y’all do.” Check out the entire rant below.

Young M.A & Her Barber React To Fans’ Concerns Over Video

Fans have noticed for some time that Young M.A has been missing from the spotlight. There was a time when the Brooklyn rapper was beasting her way through the industry, but there has been a lull. Her last album, Off The Yak, was dropped off in 2021, and Young M.A returned in October 2022 with a single. However, that’s about all fans have seen from the rapper, as her Instagram page has also been wiped clean.

Rumors about M.A have run rampant, even before her mysterious break from the mainstream. People speculated about her health, and there was gossip about her entering recovery, but those conversations dissipated as quickly as they began. A new video has surfaced and has the public talking once again; this time, Young M.A reacted to people who thrust her name into controversy.

Young M.A Appears In Barber’s Video

It was supposed to be a simple video that showed a before and after of Young M.A getting her hair done. The rapper was seen sitting in a barber’s chair, and people noticed her eyes looked yellow. Soon, social media users began firing off diagnoses, questioning whether the rapper had jaundice. Additionally, the barber who recorded and posted the clip also found themselves at the heart of criticism. People accused them of purposefully trying to make Young M.A look bad. The barber and the rapper reacted to the attention.

“Y’all got so much to say as if I’m trying to embarrass my dawg,” the barber wrote. “She reposted my video if she didn’t want me to record she would have told me. Y’all don’t know our bond nor our friendship. What y’all need to do is just send your prayers for her and that’s that. She didn’t have a haircut in a month and she wanted me to bring her haircut back to life which I did!!!!!

Rapper Stands By Her Friend

Further, Young M.A reposted her barber’s reaction and added a brief response. “We blessed don’t let that get to u blooda,” she said. “And I told you it was like 4 months [crying laughing emoji].” Fans were happy to see she was in good spirits. However, Young M.A did not address any concerns about her health. Check it out above.
