Kendrick Lamar Fights Temptation in “Love” Video
Wrapping up an epic 2017, Kendrick Lamar drops off the video for "LOVE." The new music video for his DAMN. album cut features the Compton rapper going through some trials and tribulations in his relationship with his leading lady.
While the song originally features Zacari, he doesn't appear to make a cameo in the Dave Meyers and the Little Homies-directed visuals. The video starts off with K. Dot on the beach before we see him making love to his woman on top of their dining table. The scene quickly cuts to them having a heated argument at the same table, where dishes and glasses come crashing down before Kendrick sits by himself to drink away his stress.
The visuals show Lamar at a music video shoot surrounded by tons of beauties, where he neglects them as he thinks about trying to get his girl back. Finally, the couple makes up by the end of the music video where Kendrick is sporting a hoodie that reads "Lovely" on it.
Even though Kendrick's year is wrapping up, his 2018 is still looking very bright. The California MC is nominated for seven Grammy Awards at next year's ceremonies, which includes almost all of the rap categories. He also recently released a collector's edition of DAMN., which plays the album in reverse order.
Watch the music video for "LOVE." by Kendrick Lamar below to see the relationship unfold.
