Don Lemon Breaks Down How He’s Building His Media Empire

Taking place at The Kia Forum in Inglewood on Wednesday, the Compton native will no doubt cement his status as the winner of his beef with fellow rapper Drake (as if we all needed another reminder) while paying an ode to a city that has contributed so much to both his career and hip-hop as a whole. But he’s obviously not going it alone.

So it’s in anticipation of the upcoming, highly anticipated concert (which will also be streamed on Prime Video for those who weren’t able to score last minute tix)—we though it’d be fun to speculate jus who Kung-Fu Kenny might bring out on stage with him.

Let’s start with…

Future

Future said he’s “really like that” so him showing up alongside Kendrick (and hopefully Metro Boomin, but more on that later)—would be par for the course!

Metro Boomin

METROOOOOO! He has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever on Wednesday. And I hope he does it. (Hey Siri, play “BBL Drizzy” on repeat.)

J. Cole

I know, I know—J. Cole has politely bowed out of the whole beef but an appearance can’t hurt right??

DJ Mustard

Announced on Tuesday, we have confirmation that DJ Mustard “and friends” will be present in Inglewood. You already know where Mustard goes, a good time is sure to follow.

DJ Hed

Also announced on Tuesday, we have confirmation that DJ Hed “and friends” will be present on Wednesday. Here’s hoping they all bring the hype (I have no doubt they will.)

Jay Rock

For those who are fans of good kid, m.A.A.D city, “Money Trees” featuring Jay Rock is a fave. It would be dope to see this live.

Rick Ross

The last person who contributed to beef between Drake and Kendrick, it’s only right Rozay makes an appearance.

Baby Keem

Two words: “Family Ties.” Need I say more?

Schoolboy Q

Two more words: “Collard Greens.”

A$AP Rocky

I mean, let’s be real. If this concert is supposed to be a final, proverbial nail in the coffin against Drake—then having A$AP there would be all types of levels of crazy in the pettiest way possible.

SZA

I’m putting this request for myself but mostly for my Mother and other Black Panther fans who love “All the Stars.” Come on Kendrick, let’s make it happen!

Miguel

A slightly slept on feature, seeing Miguel and Kendrick perform “How Many Drinks” remix would be such a smooth time.

Delusional Option: Rihanna

Yes, I know. It’s Rihanna. But “Loyalty” is too good not to perform live. If anyone could bring Rih out, it could be Kendrick. (Highly not likely but we’ll see).

Delusional Option: Beyonce

OK, OK, yes I know. This is also a stretch. But “America Has a Problem” remix goes and Bey brought Kendrick out for her birthday weekend show last September so here’s hoping!
