Hip hop has seen several iconic rap battles with the latest being between Canadian rapper Drake and Compton acclaimed rapper Kendrick Lamar.
In a lap victory lap of his rap beef with Drake, Kendrick Lamar has released the music video for his hit song 'Not Like Us' which put a ceremonious end to the beef.
In the video shot in his Los Angeles neighbourhood of Compton, Kendrick Lamar addressed some of Drake's claims including being a false prophet and his alleged marital issues.
Lamar's decision to shoot the video in Compton restates his status and acceptance in his hood contrary to Drake's claims.
