against fellow rap superstar Drake, Kendrick Lamar turned his Juneteenth "Pop Out" concert at the Forum into a cathartic livestreamed celebration of Los Angeles unity.

He then delivered the "Sixth Sense" quote that opens Lamar's chart-topping "Not Like Us": "I see dead people." Shuffling, frolicking, dancing and spinning around him as Lamar strode the stage in a red hoodie: NBA stars Russell Westbrook and DeMar DeRozan, Mustard, rapper Roddy Ricch and even a teenage dance troupe led by the krumping innovator Tommy the Clown.
