Kendrick Lamar must be living rent free in some people’s heads right now. A video is currently spreading across X (Twitter) of Kung Fu Kenny’s mural in Compton vandalized once more. Yes, in just the last few months, the West Coast icon’s stunning artwork is now tarnished to some degree. The first instance occurred back in September just a few days after he was announced as the Super Bowl Halftime Show performer. A man walked up to it with black spray paint and wrote “OVIO,” while also crossing out the eyes on each of the three faces of Lamar. This all went down just two months after the mural was put up in the MC’s hometown.
There’s a good chance that this act helped inspire Kendrick to pen the opening GNX cut “wacced out murals.” If you remember, he begins the song with, “Yesterday, somebody whacked out my mural / That energy’ll make you n****s move to Europe / But it’s regular for me, yeah, that’s for sure / The love and hate is definite without a cure / All this talk is b****-made, that’s on my Lord.” Well, Lamar might have to make a part two or make this into a series now, because we are afraid the vandalizing won’t stop here.

Kendrick Lamar Still Has Some Folks Mad
That’s especially true after this second case. As you can see from the video above, the original black spray paint was never removed. Now, there are some light blue “X” marks over the flanking busts of Lamar, in addition to some red “$$” on the first one on the left. But the most glaring difference is that the largest image of Lamar on the wall is completely blacked out.
In the second clip above, the man decides to show his face and record himself painting over the artwork. This looks to have been done back on November 25, or that’s at least what the Instagram video suggests. If that’s true, then that’s just three days after the release of GNX. Fans are just confused as to why the man would reveal his identity and only paint the middle Lamar bust. “Why is he doing that? also showing his face like that?” one X user questions. If there’s one thing for sure, K. Dot is still public enemy number one for a lot of people. It makes sense though, he is King Kendrick after all.
