Kendrick Lamar‘s secretive rollout for his “GNX” album even confused his closet collaborators … RJMrLA had NO CLUE he was being filmed for the “Squabble Up” music video!!! 😂
TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the seasoned L.A. rapper at his studio on Tuesday … just hours after the premiere of his swaggy cameo alongside G. Perico, Johnny El MerroJonkero and their homies from Figgmunity in the Calmatic-directed eyecatcher.
RJ keeps it 💯 … he was bombarded with text messages that morning and had to piece things together that he had been shooting scenes for Kendrick’s “Squabble Up” but still had a ball. No worries RJ, we can confirm G. Perico found out the exact same way!!! 🥶
He’s also geeked at the thought of the song potentially surpassing “Not Like Us” … it doesn’t bang on Drake but connects the West Coast even further, much like the “Pop Out” concert did, which RJ also supported with his presence.

Speaking of Drake, RJ’s 50/50 on the lawsuit claiming UMG, Spotify and iHeartRadio all played a diabolical role in helping “Not Like Us” railroad the Canadian rapper.
RJ doesn’t think a Hip Hop battle warrants a lawsuit but also feels Drake isn’t pulling all the strings … something Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg also suspects.
He waves his West Coast banner high … the same vibe Kendrick’s being praised for on his “GNX” can be heard on his latest album!!!
