Tee Grizzley’s Goes Through Near-Death Experience In “Robbery 7” Music Video

by

Tee Grizzley has continued his “Robbery” series by sharing the seventh installment for fans on Friday. In a music video for the track, Grizzley faces a near-death experience and converses with God to find forgiveness for his actions before returning to the world of the living. He concludes the first verse with the brutally honest lines: “I felt the еmbrace, it’s been a minute since I dropped tears / I’m like, ‘What about all them shootings? What about all them n****s that died? / All the hurt I put in they family heart, all the fear I put in they eyes’ / Said, ‘Everything gon’ make sense, just not right now / You came close, but you ain’t die, it’s not your time.’”

In response to the music video on YouTube, fans have been loving the new release. “The lyrical story telling with the cinematography to match will never get old,” one top comment reads. Another fan posted: “Man this so hard I love the message about GOD in the beginning that was hard,” with several fire emojis. In other news, Grizzly recently linked up with J Cole to film a music video in New York City. Further details on the unreleased song are unclear but check out Grizzly’s newest single, “Robbery 7,” below. Be on the lookout for further updates on Tee Grizzley on HotNewHipHop.

Quotable Lyrics:

No matter your sins, God got unlimited love and mercy

And your love and patience ain’t nothin’ likе his, God forgives”

Mustard Seemingly Trolls Drake With Hat At Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Video Shoot

by

Over the weekend, Kendrick Lamar was spotted filming a music video in his hometown of Compton, surrounded by a massive crowd of fans and peers. The video in question is for “Not Like Us,” one of the defining tracks of his viral feud with Drake. As expected, fans can’t wait to see the final result, though it’s unclear when it’ll finally be unveiled.

DJ Mustard, who produced the song, came out to show his support and appear in the video. In various photos and clips making their rounds online, he’s even rocking a Toronto Blue Jays hat. Many are speculating that this could be yet another jab at Drizzy. He’s from the Canadian city and has previously shown love to the baseball team. Of course, some social media users also suspect that the hat could symbolize something else entirely, which is still up for debate.

It wouldn’t come as a shock if he were to throw in yet another sneaky Drake dig, however, as the music video is sure to be full of them. After all, the song is widely believed to be the most explosive of their entire lyrical battle. On it, Kendrick accuses Drake and his OVO crew of being “certified pedophiles,” and more. Either way, viewers are looking forward to seeing the finished product, which is expected to feature several special guests.

What do you think of Kendrick Lamar being spotted filming his “Not Like Us” music video in Compton over the weekend? What about DJ Mustard rocking a Toronto Blue Jays hat during the shoot? Do you think this was yet another dig at Drake or just a simple coincidence? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kendrick Lamar & His Security Arrive At Compton City Hall For “Not Like Us” Music Video Shoot

by

More and more clips are emerging of Kendrick Lamar’s time in Compton to shoot the “Not Like Us” music video, and they’re making fans even more hyped up. He and his security detail arrived at Compton’s City Hall to film another part of the visual treatment, and it’s unclear whether or not the shoot will continue this weekend or if they already got everything. Either way, we can’t remember the last time there was this much hype around a music video, but we’re glad to see it. Probably should’ve dropped it earlier in the song’s hype cycle, but we’re not complaining about the tardiness.

Furthermore, this also lines up with Kendrick Lamar’s “The Pop Out,” the Juneteenth L.A. show that has some people feeling mind-blown and others acting underwhelmed. For one, DJ Akademiks recently shared his opinion that both Drake and J. Cole have put on better concerts and multi-artist events in their cities than K.Dot. Given how different each show’s lineup, context, and intent is, it’s not really a shocker to claim any of them as your favorite or as the most significant one. Still, it feels like most folks just can’t find a balance between praising this as one of the greatest recent hip-hop moments or as a complete embarrassment and failure; it’s not that deep.

In addition, Kendrick Lamar’s alleged entourage has also provided some interesting insights and occasional tea-spilling when it comes to some narratives around his moves. For example, an alleged close friend spoke out against The Game and his statement on why he didn’t attend “The Pop Out.” The friend suggested that the Los Angeles MC displayed some disrespect and “had to choose his words carefully.” It’s all a mystery and very vague, but it will fade in time.

Meanwhile, the increased security presence at this music video shoot also caused some backlash, for reasons unknown to anyone with common sense. Whether or not Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” music video is a hit or a dud, it will probably (and hopefully) mark the end of his battle with Drake. Maybe things flare up again with a second match in the future, or there’s more to tussle over. But it seems unlikely that the Toronto superstar will bother to concern himself with this, and we hope both opponents move on already.

Kendrick Lamar, DJ Mustard & More Film “Not Like Us” Music Video In Compton: Watch

by

It’s certainly no secret that Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss track, “Not Like Us,” is one of the biggest tracks of the year so far. This is especially true after he performed it five times alongside several of his celebrity peers at his “Pop Out” show in LA earlier this week. Dr. Dre, YG, Ty Dolla Sign, and many others made appearances throughout the evening in what ultimately turned out to be a massive celebration of West Coast hip hop.

Shortly after the highly anticipated event, it was reported that Kendrick was gearing up to film a new music video in Compton. Apparently, he recruited the L.A. County Sheriff’s Dept. to send over some Sheriff’s Deputies for added security. When that news first surfaced, it was unclear what exactly the music video was. Now, however, it appears to be confirmed that it’s a video for “Not Like Us.”

Kendrick Lamar’s Music Video Shoot

In several clips making their rounds online today, Kendrick can be seen dancing to the hit, surrounded by a huge crowd in his hometown. DJ Mustard, who produced the track, was also in attendance dancing along with the group. Mustard even posed for photos with a few lucky fans, appearing to be in good spirits. It seems as though he wasn’t the only special guest Kendrick invited to join him at the shoot, however.

Earlier today, a clip of Bobbi Althoff linking up with YG also surfaced online. This led to rumors that she’d also be making an appearance in the eagerly awaited video. At the time of writing, it remains unclear exactly when fans can plan to see it. They hope, however, that it’ll be sooner rather than later. What do you think of Kendrick Lamar getting spotted filming a music video for “Not Like Us” in Compton? What about DJ Mustard popping out? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kendrick Lamar Causes Debate As Folks Criticize His Increased Security For Music Video Shoot

by

Kendrick Lamar’s rumored upcoming music video, which might be for “Not Like Us,” is catching some apparent flack from Drake fans and general detractors. Moreover, reports recently indicated that he hired sheriff deputies for heightened security at the shoot, which some corners of social media thought was hypocritical, cowardly, unnecessary if his connects are as deep as he says, and other conspiratorially negative descriptors. However, many online were quick to retort with the loss of Nipsey Hussle years ago and plenty of other examples of violent escalations and situations when it comes to rappers out in public. All in all, the common Internet sentiment reflects an understanding that this is nothing special or condemnable, and that haters are missing the point.

Still, if that’s not an angle about this supposed Kendrick Lamar music video that you subscribe to, there are many others to consider. For example, new footage recently emerged of Bobbi Althoff in Compton with YG and others, which many took to mean that she’s either on set for this visual or will straight-up appear in it. Of course, if this ends up being for “Not Like Us,” it would seem like a very ironic cameo that could easily blow back in folks’ face. We’ll have to understand more of the context behind this to see what it all means.

Speaking of security, though, Drake recently sent a celebratory message to his main bodyguard, OVO’s Chubbs, via his Instagram Story. While it didn’t outright reference the Kendrick Lamar beef or any associated topics, it is one of his first public statements after “The Pop Out.” As such, many folks took Drizzy’s acknowledgement of “that s**t coming back around” as a subliminal allusion to the feud. Whether or not that’s true is for the tinfoil hat crew to determine, because either way, it’s not the response many anticipate.

Meanwhile, considering that Kendrick Lamar’s Juneteenth concert included a tribute to Nipsey Hussle, it’s no surprise that he would be so cognizant of staying safe and up-keeping proper and necessary security protocol. This is much bigger than macho tendencies of rap beef. Hopefully everything turns out great for the visual or whatever Compton’s getting up to this weekend. After all, this social media debate can’t be all for nothing.

Bobbi Althoff Seemingly Pulls Up To Kendrick Lamar’s Music Video Shoot In Compton

by

There are a lot of rumors surrounding a Kendrick Lamar music video shoot in Compton this weekend, and there’s very little concrete information to go by. The big assumption is that this will be for “Not Like Us,” but it’s also possible that it’s for another project or track entirely, so we’ll have to wait and see. However, if it is for the Mustard-produced Drake diss track, it will be one heck of an ironic shoot from what the shindig’s rumored guest list indicates. Moreover, new clips of Bobbi Althoff with YG and a big crowd emerged online which placed her in Compton for this video shoot.

Furthermore, she obviously sticks out like a sore thumb in the clips below, and if she really is going to be in a Kendrick Lamar music video, we’re sure that “Not Like Us” would point out this contrast in quite the ironic or playful manner. But it still seems pretty bizarre, so we’ll need more context by the time (or if) this rumored visual drops. For those unaware, Bobbi Althoff rose to fame as a social media personality and interviewer with an awkward humor and casual demeanor to her. It got her both love and hate all over the Internet, and also landed her an interview with none other than Drake that then resulted in an allegedly soured relationship with a lot of salacious and odd claims emerging about them.

As such, this all sounds like a recipe for a master Drake troll if this is really Kendrick Lamar’s move and plan for it, albeit one that could blow up in his face easily. Like we mentioned before, we’re going to need to understand the context behind this in a pretty crystal clear manner. Regardless, this is part of the massive hype that “The Pop Out” reignited on Juneteenth in Los Angeles, so we’ll see what happens with the alleged music video. Maybe there’s an inside joke here that we can’t understand yet.

Meanwhile, Drake hasn’t said much about Kendrick Lamar’s recent moves, except a potential message in an IG Story message to his head of security and OVO member Chubbs. The thought of his reaction to Bobbi Althoff possibly linking up with K.Dot is quite comical. Does Drizzy want some due credit for putting Althoff on, or does he expect loyalty from her? Either way, we’d expect a subliminal about her being “not like” them at some point.

It was an incredible celebration of West Coast hip-hop, and it seems like Kendrick is nowhere close to being done.

According to TMZ, Kendrick is filming a music video throughout Compton this weekend. In fact, to prepare for the occasion, he has enlisted the help of the L.A. County Sheriff’s Dept. The department will be sending some Sheriff’s Deputies to help beef up the security. Overall, it’s a necessary step to take considering Kendrick is in the midst of a beef right now. Law enforcement has had no indications that things could get out of hand, although their hiring serves as a precaution.

Kendrick Lamar Allegedly Filming “Not Like Us” Music Video In Compton Soon

by

Kendrick Lamar has been dominating 2024 with a plethora of diss tracks, and one earth-shattering feature. Overall, it all started with the song “Like That” in which he threw some shots at Drake and J. Cole. Subsequently, Drake shot back, and Kendrick was ready with “Euphoria.” In the span of a week, we also got “6:16 In LA,” “Meet The Grahams,” and “Not Like Us.” “Not Like Us” was the kill shot and has proven to be one of the best songs of the entire year.

For weeks now, there has been all sorts of speculation about whether or not Kendrick would be dropping a music video for the track. The common denominator here is that those speaking on the alleged music video have all said it’s being filmed in Compton. This would make sense, especially with Kendrick hosting a concert in Los Angeles on Wednesday. In fact, in a new video, Reggie Wright Jr. came out and said that Kendrick is supposedly filming his music video this weekend.

As Wright describes, folks in the Compton area should try and remain outside all day Saturday, as they may just become the stars of a music video. Wright couldn’t give many other details, although he seemed confident in his assertions. Euro Luxxk, a close friend of Kendrick’s, confirmed that Wright was telling the truth. However, he later tweeted that he enjoys trolling. So at this point, there is really no telling whether or not the music video is coming. All we can hope for is that Kendrick’s concert on Wednesday lives up to the hype.

Let us know if you think Kendrick is really dropping a music video soon, in the comments section down below. If a music video does drop, what kind of visuals are you expecting from this video? Do you believe this will reignite the feud? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Drake is one of the biggest artists on the entire planet. However, it has not been his year given what went down with Kendrick Lamar. Overall, fans overwhelmingly believe Kendrick won the battle, and it is easy to see why. That said, Drake is not going down without a fight. He has dropped off two features recently, although both were highly debated. The first came on the Sexyy Red track “U MY EVERYTHING” while the other was in the form of “Wah Gwan Delilah.”

Now, it is being reported that Drake is currently filming a music video in Houston. However, it is currently unknown what this music video is for. Instead, fans have been left waiting in the lurch, and many are trying to guess what’s next. It seems like the music video was filmed at Drake’s new Texas ranch, although all fans have to go off is the horse. Either way, this has led to a whole lot of speculation, as well as some hot takes on what should happen next.
