Kendrick Lamar’s Fiancée Whitney Alford Celebrates Her Birthday & Mother’s Day As Relationship Rumors Run Rampant

by

Kendrick Lamar and his relationship with Whitney Alford has been put under the microscope as of late. Overall, this is because of some of the allegations that were made in Drake’s song “Family Matters.” Throughout this song, Drake notes that Kendrick moved to New York and that Whitney is not with him. Furthermore, he eggs on the fact that they have been engaged for nine years with no wedding. Lastly, Drizzy also alleges that Lamar is an abuser and has laid his hands on her in the past.

These are the biggest allegations leveled against Kendrick, and fans have been wanting some sort of response. Kendrick isn’t active on social media, and he has never played those kinds of games throughout his career. Consequently, fans aren’t all that surprised by his silence. That said, fans have wanted to hear from Whitney. After all, she is the one who could definitely put an end to all of the allegations. On Sunday, Whitney was celebrating Mother’s Day and her birthday. This led a post on her Instagram story, although it wasn’t what fans were waiting for.

Drake Vs. Kendrick Lamar: DJ Akademiks Alleges Drake Lied About Dave Free & Whitney Alford Affair

by

Drake and Kendrick Lamar have been beefing for what feels like a full month and a half. Overall, the feud has been going on for over 10 years, but the climax has finally taken place. Following the release of “Not Like Us” and “The Heart Part 6,” it was clear that Lamar had won the war. Although he still has some allegations to address, it has been made abundantly clear that fans are feeling Kendrick’s output more. It has been a rough week for Drake, and it could get a whole lot worse if “Not Like Us” becomes the number one song in the world.

Yesterday, DJ Akademiks was on stream and once again, it was not looking good for Drake. At one point, Akademiks spoke on some of the lies that were spewed during the feud. In the eyes of Ak, Kendrick certainly lied on Drake during multiple points. However, as it pertains to Drake, he noted that the Dave Free and Whitney Alford claims were completely false. As many of you know, Drake kept trying to say that Dave Free and Whitney Alford had a child together. He doubled down on this in the cover art for “The Heart Part 6,” although it’s clear that this was just a narrative device.

Of course, this lie brings a lot of credibility issues to Drake’s side of the beef. Now, fans are questioning everything Drake said. Furthermore, fans now believe that “The Heart Part 6” is officially the worst song in the feud as it has been proven false. For now, the only allegation against Kendrick that is sticking, is the domestic violence claims. Kendrick has yet to say anything on this front, and fans are definitely concerned about the validity of the allegations.

Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that this looks particularly bad for Drizzy right now? What do you make of DJ Akademiks seemingly going against Drake heavily, for the first time in the battle? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Who Is Whitney Alford? Kendrick Lamar’s High School Sweetheart

by

Kendrick Lamar’s brutal rap feud with Drake has led to a number of unnerving accusations from both sides. The beef has thrust Kendrick Lamar’s long-time fiancée Whitney Alford into the spotlight, despite her generally leading a quiet and unpublicized life. As shots fly and Drake continues to drop Whitney’s name multiple times, many fans of the PGLang founder have become curious to learn more about her.

There’s not much public information regarding Whitney Alford’s personal life available on the net. However, she has popped up at a few red carpet events, and even made vocal appearances on several of Kendrick Lamar’s hit songs. Let’s take a moment to examine who Whitney Alford is, and how she factors into Kendrick’s beef with Drake.

Whitney Has Known Kendrick Since Grade School

While the general public doesn’t know Whitney very well, she has been a fixture in Kendrick’s life for over two decades. Though the exact date of their coupling is unknown, Kendrick Lamar and Whitney Alford have romantically connected since their teenage years, attending Centennial High School in Compton, California together. After the couple graduated high school in 2005, Kendrick began pursuing a rap career, while Whitney attended California State University for a bachelor’s degree in accounting.

Kendrick’s earliest lyrical references to his fiancé include bars on the 2009 track “She Needs Me,” wherein the Pulitzer Prize winner raps “Five years later, an accounting major, work at a firm/ Abundance of paper, she got a career/ She look in the rear view mirror of a Mercedes that she can steer.” Since then, Kendrick has repeatedly referenced Whitney in his music and in interviews, praising her for her patience and spirit guidance, and calling her his “day 1” on multiple occasions.

Kendrick & Whitney Have Been Engaged For Nearly 10 Years

Kendrick Lamar and Whitney Alford announced their engagement in 2015, shortly after the release of Kendrick’s groundbreaking rap album To Pimp A Butterfly. While the details of their engagement remain scarce, Whitney has been photographed wearing a large diamond ring in many photos taken between then and now. If Drake’s claims on tracks such as “Family Matters” and “The Heart Part 6” hold true, it suggests that Kendrick and Whitney may have actually split up sometime in the last year. Still, there seems to be no concrete evidence to these claims, as the pair are famous for keeping their family lives intensely private. It’s also possible that Kendrick Lamar and Whitney Alford have tied the knot in a private ceremony since their engagement was first announced as Kendrick has repeatedly referred to her as his wife in the last several years.

Whitney maintains a public Instagram page with the handle @blushedbywhit, where she occasionally shares photos of herself alongside her family. Often these posts celebrate mindfulness and family values. One particularly adorable post from 2022 highlights her gratefulness towards Kendrick specifically. In the Father’s Day upload, Whitney writes “Today I am more than happy to celebrate the men in my life… I choose to celebrate them for stepping up instead of stepping out, for providing, for assisting us women, for healing, for showing up physically and most importantly for showing up emotionally… I am grateful for the men that are showing me a different picture, my lens was very narrow before but not anymore.”

The Couple Share Two Kids Together

Kendrick Lamar and Whitney Alford share two young children both pictured on the cover art for Lamar’s 2022 album Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. Their first child is a girl named Uzi, who was born in July of 2019, and their second child is a boy named Enoch, born some time in mid to late 2021. Kendrick has boasted about the joys of fatherhood on numerous songs, including the Drake diss record “Euphoria.” Drake responded to Kendrick’s harsh words by suggesting, with no evidence, that one of his children was actually born out of an affair between Whitney Alford and Kendrick Lamar’s long-time business partner Dave Free, though most fans find this claim to be patently absurd.

In an interview with W Magazine, Kendrick Lamar offered his first public comments about fatherhood, expressing, “My children allowed me, in their development as human beings beginning to walk and talk, to remove my ego… To know that my children, too, will have their own independence, that allows me to understand the unconditional love on my end.”

DJ Akademiks has been one of the biggest online creators commenting on the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef. Overall, Akademiks has been live-streaming for quite a while. The back and forth between these two has kept Ak busy, and he constantly has to go on stream to react to the latest song. Although Kendrick appears to be winning the beef right now, Akademiks has certainly been taking up for Drake, and making a unique case for him. On his alternate IG account, Ak seems to be going deep with his investigative work.

Thanks to “Family Matters,” there has been quite a bit of talk about Kendrick’s fiance Whitney Alford, and whether or not she and Lamar are still together. Some have noticed that she and Kendrick don’t follow each other on Instagram. However, it was later noted that they have never followed one another. In a new post from Akademiks, he noted how Alford doesn’t follow her brother Taylor. Once again, some fans noted that she never has. That said, Ak also noted how Alford isn’t wearing any sort of ring on her left hand, which furthers the narrative that her and Lamar are separated.

Lastly, Akademiks also noted that Taylor Alford’s Spotify biography notes that he also goes by “TaylorMade.” Of course, Drake dropped off “Taylor Made Freestyle” a few weeks ago, only to take it down after pressure from Tupac’s estate. Some believe that this is much more than just a coincidence and that this had to have been calculated. As for what Drake may have been trying to say here, we may actually never know.

Let us know what you think of this latest theory that is circulating online, in the comments section down below.

Over the course of the half-dozen or so diss tracks exchanged by Drake and Kendrick Lamar over the past week(end), one person’s name has been tossed around almost as much as either of those involved, and that’s Whitney Alford. Drake used the mother of Kendrick’s children as a point of attack on two different tracks, “Family Matters” and “The Heart Part 6,” accusing the other rapper of abuse and neglect. He also suggests that at least one of Kendrick’s kids might be the result of infidelity between Alford and Kendrick’s business partner, Dave Free. So, who is Whitney Alford?

Alford is Kendrick Lamar’s high-school sweetheart, with whom he has shared a long-running, on-and-off-again romance. She is a makeup artist by trade, but has appeared on several of Kendrick’s songs, contributing background vocals to “King Kunta” and “Wesley’s Theory” from To Pimp A Butterfly, as well as appearing on the Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers cover with the couple’s children and narrating the tracks “United In Grief” and “Father Time.” She isn’t active on social media, but around the time Kendrick’s last album came out, she posted repeatedly — presumably to help promote the album — and Drake fans have used a May 2022 post as evidence that she and Kendrick have been on the outs for some time, as Drake asserts in his diss tracks.

Despite being one of the biggest rappers in the world, Kendrick Lamar doesn’t have much of a social media presence. Updates on the rapper can be few and far between usually coming from other outlets entirely. This time it was the rapper’s fiancé Whitney Alford who took to Instagram to share some photos of their children. The pair have two children Uzi and Enoch both of whom make an appearance in the new photos.

“Me and them… Always, in all ways. The greatest and toughest job I’ve ever been tasked with. Love my babies,” Alford captioned the post. She showed off four pictures and a video of herself with the children and fans took the comments to praise them. “As a little girl who also had her daddy’s whole face… I stan,” and “baby kdots,” two of the top comments read. They’re both in reference to the fact that fans think Kendrick’s children look a lot like him. Check out the full post and the fan reactions to it below.
