Kendrick Lamar’s recent purchase is turning heads, and for a good reason. He unveiled his new Gemini-themed grills, which pay tribute to none other than the legendary comedian and civil rights activist, Dick Gregory.
The custom grills, crafted by Gabby Elan Jewelry in Manhattan, were showcased on Instagram. The post detailed Lamar’s unique set, featuring a painted tooth of Dick Gregory, alongside diamonds, opals, emeralds, yellow sapphires, and intricate designs.
Interestingly, the Instagram post revealing the grills was taken down shortly after it was shared. However, the buzz around Kendrick Lamar’s tribute to Gregory continues to grow.
Alongside his new jewelry, Lamar has a busy schedule leading up to his highly-anticipated Los Angeles show during the Juneteenth holiday. Titled ‘The Pop Out,’ this event, organized by pgLang and Free Lunch, is set for June 19 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood. Tickets sold out almost instantly, but fans can still catch the live stream on Prime Video and Amazon Music’s Twitch channel at 4 PM Pacific time.
In addition to the excitement around his concert, Lamar recently made a heartwarming surprise visit to the Compton College commencement ceremony on June 7. Taking the stage, he shared motivating words with the graduates, highlighting the resilience and growth they’ve shown.
“I wanted to come out here just to tell y’all how much I appreciate y’all,” Lamar said. “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.”
Kendrick Lamar is making waves with his unique Gemini-themed grills and his inspiring presence in the community. Whether through his tribute to Dick Gregory or his surprise appearances, Lamar continues to leave a memorable impact.
