Kendrick Lamar concert chronology

The Pop Out: Ken & Friends is an upcoming one-off concert by the American rapper Kendrick Lamar, scheduled to be held at Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, on June 19, 2024. It will be Lamar's first major appearance after his highly publicized feud with the Canadian rapper Drake concluded.

Background

On March 22, 2024, American rapper Kendrick Lamar reignited his decade-long feud with Canadian rapper Drake.[1] Lamar unexpectedly appeared on Future and Metro Boomin's single "Like That" to diss Drake and J. Cole for their 2023 single "First Person Shooter".[2][3] A critical and commercial success, "Like That" topped the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for three consecutive weeks.[4][5]

Throughout April and May, Lamar and Drake exchanged various diss tracks aimed at the opposing party and other artists who were involved in their conflict, such as Future, Metro, ASAP Rocky, Rick Ross, and The Weeknd.[6][7] Drake's arsenal included "Push Ups",[8] "Taylor Made Freestyle" (which has since been removed),[9] and "Family Matters",[10] while Lamar's featured "Euphoria",[11] "6:16 in LA",[12] and "Meet the Grahams".[10] As time passed, the allegations both rappers utilized against their opponent grew more severe.[13][14] After Lamar released "Not Like Us",[15] which marked his second Hot 100 chart-topper of 2024,[16] Drake reportedly conceded with "The Heart Part 6".[17] Various journalists who analyzed the feud reached a verdict in Lamar's favor.[18][19]

The Pop Out: Ken & Friends was surprise announced by Lamar on June 5, 2024, as his first major performance following the feud.[20][21] Presented by the creative agencies PGLang and Free Lunch, the "victory lap" celebration is titled after a lyric from "Not Like Us" ("Sometimes you gotta pop out and show niggas") and coincides with Juneteenth.[22] Its sponsors include Cash App, Gin & Juice, and Visa. Pre-sale tickets were available for Cash App Card customers to purchase on June 6, 2024; general ticket sales will begin the following day via Ticketmaster.[23] The one-off concert will open its doors at approximately 3 p.m. PT, and is slated to commence at 4 p.m.[23]
