Kendrick Lamar brought his rare family into the limelight in the latest music video for the diss track \u201cNot Like Us\u201d. The release is part of an ongoing feud with fellow rapper Drake. According to Independent magazine, this is Lamar’s third diss song in just 36 hours. The video, which was released a few days ago, has more than 36 million views on YouTube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The track\u2019s lyrics take a lot of jabs at Drake. In one verse, Lamar calls Drake a \u201ccertified pedophile,\u201d and references Drake\u2019s 2021 album titled \u201cCertified Lover Boy\u201d. Lamar raps, \u201cSay it, Drake, I hear you like \u2018em young. You\u2019d better never go to a cell.\u201d He continues, \u201cA revealed boyfriend? He has been proven to be a child molester.\u201d These serious allegations have ignited an ongoing feud between the two rappers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The music video for \u201cNot Like Us\u201d rarely features Lamar with a fianc\u00e9 and two kids. In the video, they dance inside a house, which one commenter described as a \u201cbrutal\u201d turn on the happy family. This performance adds a personal touch to Lamar\u2019s diss track, focusing on his family life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lamar\u2019s decision to include his family in the video contrasts with Drake\u2019s recent song \u201cFamily Matters,\u201d which accused Lamar of domestic violence. Drake also made references to Lamar’s fiancee Whitney Alford and actress Millie Bobby Brown, 20, on another song, further fueling their feud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lamar’s fianc\u00e9, Whitney Alford, has been an important part of his life for years. As GQ reported, Alford and Lamar are high school sweethearts who met in Compton, California. She has supported Lamar throughout his career and even sang background vocals on his \u201cTo Pimp a Butterfly\u201d album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lamar and Alford graduated from high school in 2005, marking nearly 20 years together. In an interview with Power 105.1, Lamar emphasized the importance of loyalty to those who have been with him since the beginning. He said, \u201cEveryone around me has been there from day one and I can\u2019t change that. I\u2019m not making changes for anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lamar and Alford got engaged in 2015, People reported. Lamar has always spoken highly of Alford, describing him as his best friend rather than just as his fianc\u00e9. In an interview with Billboard magazine, he said, \u201cDon\u2019t even call her my daughter. He is my best friend. I\u2019m also not interested in the position that society has placed in the world as far as dating goes \u2013 he\u2019s someone I can share my fears with.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alford shared her engagement ring quite a bit on Instagram in 2018, but the couple has remained private about their relationship. Sometimes they only share snippets of their lives on social media and in interviews. Alford has 149,000 followers on Instagram but rarely posts on the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kendrick Lamar and Whitney Alford have two children. They welcomed their daughter Uzi in July 2019. The birthday of their second child, Enoch, has been saved. Lamar\u2019s dedication to his family is evident in his work and interviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an interview with W magazine, Lamar revealed how much his children enjoyed his very own album \u201cMr. morality,\u201d he said. He said, \u201cWhen I got to the end I said, \u2018I can put this out or I can\u2019t; I will not include this; it\u2019s way too much,\u2019 I thought to my kids. I thought about when they turned 21, or matured in life, and when I had my grandchildren, or if I was gone for long \u2013 how this could be a prerequisite for coping. That\u2019s the beauty of it for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kendrick Lamar\u2019s new diss song \u201cNot Like Us\u201d not only ignited his feud with Drake but also brought his family into the public eye.
