Kendrick Lamar hardly pops out but when he does, it’s a statement. During this year’s Met Gala, the California legend emerged with swagger as Chanel’s “ambassadors and friends of the house.” The rapper came through decked out in the high-end brand, which apparently includes a diamond-encrusted CC cap that he flaunted in newly surfaced photos from the uber-exclusive Met Gala. Joined by Naomi Campbell, Margaret Qualley, and Jennie Kim, the rapper appeared in Chanel’s celebratory flicks on their Instagram page.
However, Kendrick’s appearance in the photos seemed to be jarring for some. In one of the photos, only half of his face appears as he cracks an eerie grin that showcases the Chanel-branded diamond-encrusted cap on his front tooth. However, the second photo shows Kendrick posing alongside Campbell and Qualley with his entire outfit on display. “Ambassadors and friends of the House got together to celebrate the opening of The Costume Institute’s exhibition, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. On this occasion, they posed for a group portrait lensed by Inez & Vinoodh,” the caption reads.
Kendrick Lamar’s Met Gala Outfit
K. Dot was undoubtedly dressed to impress at the Met Gala this year. The Compton native came through with a fresh black jacket and trousers that he held up with a red Chanel bandana. Despite his usual reclusive nature, he also linked up with several other artists including Stormzy and Jack Harlow. Although people like Doja Cat and Jared Leto came through with jaw-dropping outfits, Kendrick Lamar chose a simpler route and it evidently worked out for him in the end.
Besides the Met Gala appearance, Kendrick recently made history with the Mr. Morale tour, which officially became the highest-grossing hip-hop tour in history. Surpassing Drake, Jay-Z, and Kanye, the tour brought in $110.9M with 929,000 tickets sold across 73 shows. Needless to say, it was a concert for the books and anyone who attended will certainly confirm this to be true.
