Fans Look For Clues In Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Video

The jacket, as well as a scarf Kendrick sported at other points in the video, is from Jamaican-British designer Martine Rose’s Spring/Summer collection. Fans think this could have been a reference to Kendrick’s digs at Drake’s accent and use of Toronto slang. This is unconfirmed, though it wouldn’t come as a shock considering all the subtle jabs Kendrick’s taken at Drizzy in recent months.

As for the actual release date for Kendrick’s next album, it’s still up in the air, though some suspect that it’ll arrive sooner rather than later. During a recent chat with TMZ , for instance, The Alchemist shared his prediction that the project will drop sometime this year. “I think he’s gonna drop an album this year,” he told the outlet, “I don’t think he has to… I think he will, just cuz he can.” What do you think of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” music video?
