A lot of Compton residents couldnāt make the show. Why would Kendrick make a song representing his neighborhood and then only use people that bought a $400 ticket?
Itās only unnecessary to yall cause you aināt from his city. No one in his city thinks he is doing too much
Got nothing to do with not being from there, I would think the same about any artist doing it this late after everything already transpired.
Itās obviously a huge moment for the city, no doubting that, just feels like this video shouldāve came before The Pop Out.
The Pop Out shouldāve been the victory lap, that was an historic night
They gon be mad at this but wet themselves over a 7 minute video
The problem is you think its still about the beef at this point. its not , its just a west coast anthem song now
It is, but it also still is a diss record. Thereās no removing that context from it, every single verse is explicitly about that man
Not writing it off, nor am I saying the video wonāt be great, just feel like itās a little unnecessary at this point.
If The Pop Out never happened, then it would make more sense, but I think The Pop Out kind of satiated the need for a NLU music video
Long term nobody will care and the video will be a thing to go back to if itās dope

This true, Iām just speaking from in the moment right now
Is it not?
Itās a bop lmao
Itās the most radio friendly track Kendrick has put out in ages
The hook is infectious, the beat is great, loads of quotes going at the person everyone hates and has a very radio friendly outro
posts like these is why youāre on here with us instead of managing talent in the music industry š

Why should they care
Kendricks gonna win SOTY Grammy for NLU, just watch. NLU isn't just a diss it's a moment.
Next year, heās taking home 6 Grammys, even without dropping the album. He'll get 3 in the rap category as well. (NLU, EUPHORIA, LIKE THAT)
He'll probably win MVOTY, SOTY, and Best Music Film (pop-out concert).
He might even score another Emmy for the pop-out concert. This is literally insane.
What a time to be alive
I guess to me it just feels like The Pop Out was the major moment. This video definitely shouldāve happened before that

I shoot for talent though lol

Bro respectfully you donāt get to make that call. That man had to plan an entire event with rival hoods. He also is working on an album. You also have to apply for permits and they take weeks sometime. Again no one from where he is from cares about this. Thatās what should matter. This is their moment.

Heāll most definitely win Best Rap Song.
The Grammys would be extremely bold to give him Song or Record of the Year, but Taylor released this year so itās unlikely to happen

The video will encapsulate the same feeling and will be 3 mins long, more people will go back to a music video than a concert video

Iām not making any call, just giving my opinion and perspective like everyone else on this site does every day

As a huge Drake stan that was all part of drakes plan
Checkmate midrick

Taylorās release was weak tho

Maybe, but not if the concert video was clipped up and turned into a Not Like Us music video. Look at Niggas in Paris
Iāve been firmly Team Kendrick this whole beef so donāt think this opinion is coming from a Drake stan, but at least the Family Matters music video was the debut of the song and it dropped during the height of the beef
Itās not that a Not Like Us video is doing too much in and of itself, itās the when that itās coming is what makes it feel unnecessary.
The Pop Out completely captured the essence of the song and the clips from that alone wouldāve served as a great music video.
This video coming after that legendary performance and after Kendrick has already unanimously been declared the winner just feels a little bit like overkill at this point
iām sure 15 years from now everyone is going to think about how he was doing too much instead of the video/song being ingrained in rap history!
Taylorās release was weak tho
Taylor has been winning Grammys off name alone for a decade now, they donāt care what she drops, if her nameās attached sheās winning something

āKendrick just opened his mouthā

Yāall doing too much nobody said all this, chill out Iām literally Team Kendrick in all this lmao
