Kendrick Lamar‘s Gemini-themed grills have drawn inspiration from one of the greatest comedians of all time.
Gabby Elan Jewelry in Manhattan took to its Instagram on Friday (June 7) to share photos of the Compton rapper’s newest purchase.

Richard Claxton “Dick” Gregory was known as a comedian and an actor before he gained mainstream prominence as a Civil Rights activist, and even worked with the Kennedy administration to investigate the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr.
New jewelry isn’t the only thing on Lamar’s plate these days. His highly anticipated show in Los Angeles over the Juneteenth holiday will be accessible to the public, courtesy of Amazon’s Rotation brand.

The concert, titled ‘The Pop Out,’ will be at Inglewood’s Kia Forum. It is being organized by pgLang and Free Lunch. Set to take place on June 19, tickets for the gathering sold out soon after going live.
Fortunately for those who weren’t able to secure passes, the concert will be live-streamed on Prime Video, as well as the Amazon Music channel on Twitch, at 4 PM Pacific time.

As of now, it isn’t clear who will be present at the show besides Mustard, who confirmed that he’ll appear via a social media post.
Name of his upcoming concert notwithstanding, Lamar hasn’t popped out in public much over the past few months, though it seems like he’s slowly starting to reemerge.
Earlier this week, the rapper made a surprise appearance at a graduation ceremony in his hometown to share some words of inspiration for the next generation.
The Compton College commencement for the class of 2024 took place on Friday (June 7). K.Dot caught the crowd off guard when he took the stage for a few minutes.

“I wanted to come out here just to tell y’all how much I appreciate y’all,” he began. “I’m proud of the city of Compton; I’m proud of Compton College; most importantly I’m proud of the graduates out here. That’s right, I know what it takes. You had a lot of hardship, not only in your house, in your communities, but most importantly, within yourself. And that’s the toughest thing to overcome. We still growing day by day, brick by brick, making sure we develop, not only in physical form but in the spiritual as well.”
