Kendrick Lamar Smashes an Owl Piñata to Tease His "Not Like Us" Video

"No OVHoes were harmed during the making of this video," apparently

Grouse about streams all you like: Kendrick Lamar handily bested Drake in their flurry of diss tracks this past spring, and kicked off summer playing "Not Like Us" five times in a row in his home city for one of the greatest victory laps the world will ever know.

With an accompanying music video on the way, it's safe to say "Not Like Us" isn't going anywhere soon. Following a shoot in Compton, CA, last month (June 22), select frames from the "Not Like Us" video have now surfaced online, shared widely by outlets including XXL and hip-hop-focused X account Kurrco.

One still finds Lamar with his old Top Dawg Entertainment running mates ScHoolboy Q, Jay Rock and Ab-Soul, while another in black-and-white shows the artist with finacée Whitney Alford and their two children.

The most striking (no pun intended) of the bunch pictures Lamar taking a swing at an owl piñata, with an included disclaimer reading, "No OVHoes were harmed during the making of this video."

Find the new stills and previously shared clips from the shoot below. A release date for Lamar's "Not Like Us" video has yet to be announced.

Drake's recent spate of Ls also extends to bewildering the Plain White T's and sports gambling losses.
