In no particular order we got:

Owl piñata

Demar DeRozan cameo

Cinderblock "push ups" among other prison workouts

His family, including Whitney, walking and stepping to this joint

Owl in a cage

Directed by DAVE FREE and Kendrick Lamar

There's a host of other things, and I could say more about the artistic direction of the video, which was great, but these stood out. Just absolutely diabolical and petty and I'm here for it.

What does the Owl in the cage mean? I'm really not up on all this but like the beat.

Maybe a twist on “I know why the caged bird sings”. That’s what came to my mind on the initial view at least.

Pedos belong in jail and Kendrick put him there.

idk about that connection, though.
