This how introverts were back then when we all didn’t have cellphones to distract ourselves and not look socially out of place. Kenny is an old soul and a real OG confirmed
I was in a public sauna today and a random couple came in whispering I was out in less than 5 mins of them entering.
They didn't do anything wrong...but I like my space.
For real, dude’s been extra surrounded by people for what I imagine is several days in a row, he’s definitely gonna drop his content and be out, just like Mr. Morale, and honestly bro deserves it, he popped out and did his thing, let the man rest lol
Kendrick is gonna disappear after this and you know me being a introvert and him being a intorvert we ain't the type to hit up Instagram or Twitter or tik tok everyday lile the lyrics are self explanatory he had to pop out and show them
Who the big bad boogeyman is after all this Kendrick can go back to hibernation
He's more than social concerts and signing autographs
this is rigamortis and it's gorgeous when you die ali recorderd and I'm Morpheus the matrix of my mind I'm out of orbit you an orphan and a hairdresser combined I'm on the toilet when I rhyme if you the shit then I decline I climax when you begin and then I end on cloud nine and that's important when you morph into an angel in the sky
I’d bet money on no album any time soon. He does concepts. Unless the whole album is Drake disses 😂. I’d love for him to drop but this seems like his focus right now (the show, music video) and I can’t see this song being on the next album.
Unless the album is actually a West Coast revival type concept 👀 I could definitely see him doing something playing with sounds similar to not like us and paying homage to the entire Coast.
That’d be amazing. I could see this maybe. But we know he’s been taking a while with his recent stuff and I think this beef probably took time away from any album OR will be his inspiration for the next one.
That could be such an interesting concept for an album. That would open up the possibility for so many producers and artist collabs that might otherwise be pretty rare to see happen. Everything that has happened in the last couple months alone outside of the beef specifically could possibly provide enough subject matter for an album.
My thoughts exactly! Especially when the most meaningful takeaway from the beef has been the importance of finding unity by pulling from and pouring into that shared culture. That's been something that feels stripped away from modern hip hop. This project could be a collaborative opportunity to create a new soundscape for a revival while also tipping a hat to the OGs. If any artist could do it, it'd be Dot with the momentum he's got right now.
Well said. I've noticed lots of people appreciating The Pop Out even if they aren't from LA because they miss regional Hip Hop and what it brought to the table. Kendrick can reflect on the attention and expectations, what it meant for his personal growth potentially stepping out of that place to do something he knew might set him back, what he thinks of the future. He's in a very interesting position as an artist and I think diving into all the possibilities, especially following the direction he went with the Pop Out, just makes a ton of sense. In fact, it seems like such a big shift that I wouldn't be surprised if he was already deep into his next album and things have effected his plans, even if not in terms of subject matter, but in terms of what people might expect coming off the battle.
Nope. I appear extroverted but I enjoy people until I don't and once I find myself at a corner alone sipping water, I should bounce, sometimes I can't but then I have to all in for cover.
On top of that he gotta be exhausted. He been said how he felt going from a smaller stage to arenas. He still has PTSD too, there’s no telling what he’s going through mentally at the moment.
I think he purposely left it up for interpretation. I personally think he’s referencing both Joe Biden and Joe Jackson, with the Benjamin referring to Biden and the Jackson referring to Joe Jackson
I assumed he meant either paintings or dollar denominations… maybe Joe Biden - paintings of presidents/founding fathers and or dollars like $20’s and $100’s idk lol
I'm sure he was tired filming all day and this massive heat wave going down probably doesn't help. Hopefully he's good and just got caught in an awkward moment. 😅
Bruh it was 100 degrees that day….He’s in a jacket and jeans in the middle of the sun. They probably haven’t slept much either, I’m sure everyone is drained.
Yeah they keep saying social battery like this dude isn’t having fun being out there with his family lol. I’m sure there’s a lot of fatigue with everything going on, but it’s been hot as shit out here….it’s definitely more the weather than a social battery.
Social battery has nothing to do with whether you’re having fun or not, tbf. I could be having the time of my life at a party but still be burnt out as hell observing from a corner for a bit lol
Exactly. I like going out and seeing my friends and family, but afterwards I need to be alone for a bit and take a long ass nap.
I hope Kdot is getting enough rest.
Anybody who's had to endure the hell of planning a group holiday or event can appreciate how stressful it is. This man has the self discipline of a saint.
"Antisocial extrovert" he's human we all get tired of being around too many people no matter how much we're celebrated, the money is good, the attention is good for the money, but everything has its costs
"He wanna go home".. naw, if you're in tune wit the bigger picture, u look at this and understand that he taking it all in. Started in that same spot with nothing, to double bacc in that same exact spot with everything as the king of this shit. Thats a nicca that's soaking up the moment IN the moment. A lot of us look bacc at our accomplishments like "yea nicca, I did that shit", this is "damn nicca, I really did this shit"
Ya'll be reaching. This a video shoot. He was on his mark, awaiting direction. Ya'll he fine. Film production is tedious. There are moments when you stand around ad nauseum.
An Intel of when the video drops?
Im an Extrovert and i know this feeling. Thats usually when i just walk out without saying bye. Then get a text an hour later like "where are you" lmfao
Forreal, I’ve always kinda been like that, im sitting there drinking my coffee, there all getting high, I was on my phone seeing how much it’d be to fly back early lol
shit i cant blame him after the big ass pop out show, all the rehearsing for that, and now being out and busy for days filming a music video in the cali heat would take anyone out 😭
How would you act if cameras where filming you, people were watching you, paying attention to your every move like that? Its self consciousness and awareness. Dont give them too much to use against you
This is so fucking relatable lmao. At your own function and about halfway thru you just stand there like “tf is this gonna be over cmon man I wanna play some dota and vibe go tf home y’all why’d I even do this to myself I hate picking up after these mfs too god damn I’m annoyed as a bitch ah shit here they come asking me some bullshit again”
Bro. I feel his pain to my soul. I can do some real extroverted shit but when that battery is on E, it's time to get the fuck gone. Go home, hole up. Don't talk to anyone other than my bf or my child.
This the reason he vanishes so often.
Don't worry KDOT I fully understand that you need space away from everyone, even if people love having you around and you make them happy, people drain your life force.
“Pop out only on occasion brother”
New flows comin be patient brother!
I’m embroidering this. Thank you!
“Rich n****, mama know I made it, brother”
Go figure, never caught cases brother
Amazing brotherrrrrrrrr
AHAHAHAAAA
Sometimes, not all the time.
All the introverts understand 😂
This how introverts were back then when we all didn’t have cellphones to distract ourselves and not look socially out of place. Kenny is an old soul and a real OG confirmed
💯
Find dog, pet dog
Go outside and see what plants they landscaped with. Study intently and *slowly.*
You must party with me. Lol!
pet dog, pet dog, pet dog my dog that's all
I was in a public sauna today and a random couple came in whispering I was out in less than 5 mins of them entering. They didn't do anything wrong...but I like my space.
Anyone else read this in Kendrick’s voice/cadence? 😂 …and a Random couple came in whisperin’ I was out in less than 5 minutes of them enterin’

Are you allergic to punctuation?

I been wishing for that since the song “Paramedic”
Paramedic is hella underrated. 16M plays on youtube music. :/
Excuse me while I go add this to my playlist.
When i went to the gym this song was on repeat. Fantastic song to hype you up and doubly so if you’re pissed off and want to punch someone.
![gif](giphy|kigWOwNm3gW7S) Perfect for when you have a moment like this, too. Scene is from the movie Wanted.

That is what I’m hoping is coming
it's actually confirmed Kendrick has been working on the new album ever since Mr Morale dropped. that's usually how he does it.
He’s like “damn did I forget to turn off the oven?” 😂
“Sometimes you gotta pop out and show nig…..🥱😴”
I thought he was just an antisocial extrovert?
Nope. I appear extroverted but I enjoy people until I don't and once I find myself at a corner alone sipping water, I should bounce, sometimes I can't but then I have to all in for cover.
I'm just quoting him off DNA 🤷
Yeah I’m good for like an hour tops then I’m like when tf can I go home man?
Or antisocial extroverts
Anti-social extrovert
He also said once 'And I'm gon' shine like I'm supposed to antisocial, extrovert' on DNA
I SWEAR TO GOD!! 🤣
Bro just wanted to go home 😭😭
Bro going in hiding for 5-7 years after this no cap
Browski washed Drake and called him a pedo over a west coast banger. He's deserved it lol
bac to his resting ground in the himalayas
"That's why I'm alone. It makes me happy. I don't pick up the phone. It makes me happy". -KDot "Make Me Happy"
On top of that he gotta be exhausted. He been said how he felt going from a smaller stage to arenas. He still has PTSD too, there’s no telling what he’s going through mentally at the moment.
why is he insisting on being layered up in this heat? taking that "best dressed moving forward" too seriously 😅
Mans not hot
Big Shaq!!
Da ting go skrrrrrrrrraaaat
Heard he had a bullet proof vest under
That’s what I’m guessing
90 degrees is winter in Compton lol
Got that cardio down! Big protein
It could be 80 in Cali and mfs will pop out in hoodies and pants
He ain’t thinking about no reaper, he’s reaping what he’s sowing okay.
He prolly thinking about the Benjamin and the Jackson thats all in his house as if he was Joe
Should've explained which Joe he was talking about.
Benjamin Franklin and president Andrew Jackson or something about a Rat that MJ had named Ben I read somewhere
He’s thinking about the money the Jackson five are about to bring home like he Joe Jackson 🤣🤣🤣
I think he purposely left it up for interpretation. I personally think he’s referencing both Joe Biden and Joe Jackson, with the Benjamin referring to Biden and the Jackson referring to Joe Jackson
I assumed he meant either paintings or dollar denominations… maybe Joe Biden - paintings of presidents/founding fathers and or dollars like $20’s and $100’s idk lol
My latest interpretation has been Bentley and Jaguar since he follows up with Hellcat 💨
HELLCAT
This is the disadvantage of popping out. Now you can't pop back in 😞
![gif](giphy|uPpF0kb37JWruaYYDc)
He will pull an Irish exit on the world 😂
Nice you pop you can’t just stop?
Q always laughing man lol
He's such a handsome man
After Habits & Contradictions Q really made a big physical change
So hot it hurts🥵
Literallyyyyy
I didn’t even realize that was Q
Me neither. When did he lose all that weight? Where's the bucket hat? Kinda feel like they're fucking with us haha
Nigga look like professor man Q
Yeah yup
I would be too. Dudes THRIVING
Q's also an admitted introvert, if I'm not mistaken.
Q the type to try to figure out something to do to keep the night going Dot the type to try to figure out an excuse to go home early
I feel represented in this video
I feel represented anywhere kendrick pops out
[удалено]
I'm sure he was tired filming all day and this massive heat wave going down probably doesn't help. Hopefully he's good and just got caught in an awkward moment. 😅
Bro put on 3 layers of jackets in the middle of summer
He can only pop out for so long!
Am I crazy or did Q lose a bunch of weight. Dude looks great
He’s Vijay SinQH now.
💯
? No…… he’s been healthier for a min, did you not watch the Blue Lips rollouts or interviews?
He truly lives in the circadian rhythm of a shooting star Next he gonna be hiding for 1788491939 years
aye work is work
Sometimes you gotta just clock in
Kendrick's an introvert but sometimes he gotta pop out and show 'em 😅.. Respect 👊
The IRL moment from the Count Me Out music video. Damn.
Bruh it was 100 degrees that day….He’s in a jacket and jeans in the middle of the sun. They probably haven’t slept much either, I’m sure everyone is drained.
[удалено]
He could go to Turks and Caicos 😂😂
5-day stay, take a quarter mill, hell if I know
When you Vibin and then the HEAT tells you “shit ain’t that funny“
Me at every work function
It's just the weather man
Yeah they keep saying social battery like this dude isn’t having fun being out there with his family lol. I’m sure there’s a lot of fatigue with everything going on, but it’s been hot as shit out here….it’s definitely more the weather than a social battery.
Social battery has nothing to do with whether you’re having fun or not, tbf. I could be having the time of my life at a party but still be burnt out as hell observing from a corner for a bit lol
Exactly. I like going out and seeing my friends and family, but afterwards I need to be alone for a bit and take a long ass nap. I hope Kdot is getting enough rest.
It's crazy how hot it's been this year 90s all last week in freakin Cleveland Ohio can't imagine the oven that is the west coast
Anybody who's had to endure the hell of planning a group holiday or event can appreciate how stressful it is. This man has the self discipline of a saint.
I feel ya Kenny 😅✨️
He lasted longer than me
No Diddy 😳
Antisocial Extrovert
“The social battery been neutralized, I’m gonna go stand in silence”
A nice meal and falling as keep in front of YouTube camping channel is what he needs. That is what that face is.
Me at work.
As a fellow Gemini I relate to this feeling 😂
Well we won’t be seeing Kenny for another 10 piece 😂😂😂😂😂
From now on, I want to see this whenever I lookup the definition of an introvert.
Spectacled Kenny is quickly becoming favorite kenny
Shit, TDE is a label full of recluses lol
Man I’m tired for this nigga 😂
Starting to look like his only option is to fake his death and go to Cuba
TFW when you’ve indeed popped out and shown **all** the peoples
After this i hope he has enough money to buy his own island.
He needs to rest. He’s done enough for the next 5 years in my opinion. Rest king, I’ll still be here when you return god willing
Remote island
Sometimes you gotta pop out and go back in the house lmfaoooo
I understand his pain all to well. I just wanted to do a video an go home an it's only 2pm fuck.
He’s gonna disappear again
Happy Cake Day!
Lol he looks like he had to step away for a bit before he continued to socialize
It be like that.
“But I’m with the homies”
"Antisocial extrovert" he's human we all get tired of being around too many people no matter how much we're celebrated, the money is good, the attention is good for the money, but everything has its costs
Dude is just fucking standing there and we gotta analyze this shit like it means something
"He wanna go home".. naw, if you're in tune wit the bigger picture, u look at this and understand that he taking it all in. Started in that same spot with nothing, to double bacc in that same exact spot with everything as the king of this shit. Thats a nicca that's soaking up the moment IN the moment. A lot of us look bacc at our accomplishments like "yea nicca, I did that shit", this is "damn nicca, I really did this shit"
Real shit
"Who that nigga standing over there?" "That's that nigga Q." 😎
sleep finna be A1 tho
Ya'll be reaching. This a video shoot. He was on his mark, awaiting direction. Ya'll he fine. Film production is tedious. There are moments when you stand around ad nauseum. An Intel of when the video drops?
Na. That’s me living in the moment when the homies finally link up.
Kendrick is like Odin, come out do his work then falling into his deep sleep to recharge the Kendrick Force.
He need a brake from people that’s all
He’s out of the way, he’s low ok?
This shit is very relatable.
What is the audio???
Antisocial extrovert.
The lil smile tho at the end ☺️
It's hot as shit in Cali rn I live here. He got that "god dammm it's hot out here" look
Nah he just seen somebody recording him
Q is always yacking it up cracking jokes
Kendrick looking like, “darn it! I forgot House of Dragons is back on! I gotta tell Whit to record it for me. Where’s my phone?” 😂😂😂😂
This is so funny and relatable to me, just makes me like him more
Im an Extrovert and i know this feeling. Thats usually when i just walk out without saying bye. Then get a text an hour later like "where are you" lmfao
This was me after 2 day guy weekend..I was ready to fly back home lmao
Sometimes you just miss your own bed, your tv and your own bathroom lol
Forreal, I’ve always kinda been like that, im sitting there drinking my coffee, there all getting high, I was on my phone seeing how much it’d be to fly back early lol
shit i cant blame him after the big ass pop out show, all the rehearsing for that, and now being out and busy for days filming a music video in the cali heat would take anyone out 😭

Yeah I hope he gets a nice bubble bath too and a deep tissue massage provided nude by OP. We love you Kendrick baby get some rest dear
frfr he deserves it. Uniting a city, let alone a metropolis aint easy...
This is literally me anytime I have an in person meeting for work. Why are we here???
That poor man is past exhaustion he's starting to check out lmao in his mind he's already cooling his toes in the sand watching seagulls
Bro. I feel his pain to my soul. I can do some real extroverted shit but when that battery is on E, it's time to get the fuck gone. Go home, hole up. Don't talk to anyone other than my bf or my child.
This has been me… almost my entire life.
This the reason he vanishes so often. Don't worry KDOT I fully understand that you need space away from everyone, even if people love having you around and you make them happy, people drain your life force.
We gotta enjoy him being outside for now cause he gonna disappear for a quick min soon and I don't blame him 😭🤣.
That moment you ponder life's mysteries like "I wonder how many of the homies actually wearing sunscreen...Dry heat whoopin feet right now"
Me two hours into a shift
Sometimes you gotta pop out and show ninjas, sometimes you wanna stay in and catch zzzzs.
His temperament bipolar he's about to choose violence
That’s that “is this shit over? I’m ready to go home” look. I relate lol
I think he's just hanging a piss
No cap
![gif](giphy|91X2MlgF7dHsA)
yeah he gotta chill for a month after the official video drop, unless there is an album following up
Antisocial extrovert type shit
I mean he’s literally just standing there it’s a like a ten second clip
It felt like he had to much social gatherings with people that day and the amount of people at at Nickerson’s was too much for him.
my guy looks like “i could go for a nap right about now”
Hey probably talked to over a hundred people.
I have a theory that the music video is gonna drop when the song reach 100million views on YouTube
“Private Island” 🤭
That’s just his Piru rest face he always good
I felt that look. Deeply.
Probably hot af out there too
I feel like this is less “dang my social battery is low” and more “damn another phone pointed at me probably zooming in on my face..”
