Kendrick Lammar has demonstrated that, despite the $120 per hour expense, security is the most important thing to him.
The Grammy-winning rapper has tightened security to protect the community, himself, and his crew while the production crew is in Compton filming his new music video.
Kendrick’s team has secured all the required permits to complete the project, including additional security provided by the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, according to law enforcement sources, as reported by TMZ.
For security concerns, the exact number of deputies has not been revealed; nevertheless, Kendrick’s production firm is apparently paying about $120 per hour for the additional security.
While the move comes in the light of Kendrick’s beef with Drake, it’s been confirmed that no new threats have surfaced besides the rappers’ consecutive diss tracks against each other.
However, the authorities are taking the long-going feud seriously and keeping an eye on social media for any drama.
For those unversed, the two rappers had publicly ended the feud in early May before Kendrick sparked new controversy with his recent diss track Not Like Us which also topped the Billboard charts.
Just recently, Kendrick fired shots at Drake over a valuable item in Drake’s possession in his recent The Pop Out concert where he impromptly changed lyrics to his song Euphoria as he rapped, “Give me Tupac’s ring back, and I might give you a little respect.”
The latter remained unfazed even as Kendrick performed the Not Like Us diss track five times.
