Nas has once again expressed his admiration for Kendrick Lamar, this time with a heartfelt tribute following the release of Lamar’s surprise album GNX . The Queens rap icon took to social media, sharing the album cover with a caption that reads, “Always inspired by my brother KL. Keeping the essence of this sh—t alive and at the forefront. Salute King!”
This show of respect comes after Kendrick Lamar made a nod to Nas in his song “wacced out murals,” where he revealed that Nas was the only peer to congratulate him on his Super Bowl halftime performance. Lamar referenced a moment where Lil Wayne had shared his disappointment in a video and Snoop Dogg reposted the “Taylor Made Freestyle,” but it was Nas who stood out for his support.
In his verse, Lamar rapped, “Won the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me,” while also addressing the broader industry’s reaction. His reference highlights the close bond between the two rap legends, with Nas remaining a consistent source of inspiration for Lamar throughout his career.
