Based on behind-the-scenes footage, one of the most promising scenes from the video features the entire TDE family outside Compton’s Nickerson Gardens. They’ve come a long way and the moment was especially considering Kendrick Lamar’s separation from the label. Divorces can be tricky, but those fellas figured it out and it’s beautiful to see.
