Kendrick Lamar looks to be getting in shape ahead of his upcoming, “Grand National Tour,” which he’s co-headlining alongside SZA.

Kendrick Lamar was spotted doing a series of pull-ups while working out in California, this week. A video of him getting some reps in at an outdoor park surfaced on social media on Monday. In turn, fans have been having all sorts of reactions to the GNX rapper getting in shape.

“Something Drake would never be able to do. People love Kendrick here in Cali,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Prior to the tour, they both performed together at the Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show. They also collaborated on “Luther” off of GNX.

In other news, Andrew Schulz made headlines for discussing his beef with Kendrick Lamar, earlier this week. Appearing on The Breakfast Club, he defended his controversial jokes about being able to sexually assault the rapper who dissed him on “wacced out murals.” He explained: “‘Slide on both of them.’ What does ‘slide’ mean to y’all? If you say kill my friends, everything after that is fine. You took it there…”
