Kendrick Lamar Heralds ‘Ken & Friends’ Juneteenth Concert In Los Angeles

Kendrick Lamar will take the stage at historic venue The Kia Forum near Los Angeles on June 19 for a Juneteenth concert. Dubbed “The Pop Out Ken & Friends,” the name of the event implies Lamar will be joined by other musicians at the show which has a 4 p.m. start time.

The concert was announced by the rapper in an Instagram story showing the name of the event, its date and location within a California license plate. The show marks a hometown show of sorts for the Compton native.

Kendrick Lamar’s previous concert took place in Mexico City on March 23. Since that time, Lamar engaged in a back-and-forth of diss tracks with fellow rapper Drake. It’s been two years since Kendrick Lamar released Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, his last full-length studio album.
