Tyler The Creator delivers earth-shaking ‘Earfquake’ performance at Kendrick’s ‘Pop Out’ concert

The KIA Forum erupted with excitement on Wednesday night as Tyler The Creator made a surprise entrance during Kendrick Lamar's "Pop Out" concert.

Kendrick Lamar's hometown Juneteenth celebration at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, dubbed "The Pop Out: Ken & Friends," was not just a musical spectacle but a symbolic gesture of unity within the West Coast rap community.

Announced on short notice following Lamar's notorious rap battle with Drake, the event was segmented into three acts, each showcasing a distinct flavor of Los Angeles' vibrant music scene.

The evening kicked off under the stewardship of DJ Hed, who introduced the crowd to a blend of emerging and established local talents.

The middle segment, curated by renowned producer Mustard, turned the spotlight on his own hits like Tyga’s “Rack City” and 2 Chainz’s “I’m Different.”

It also featured guest performances by icons such as Dom Kennedy, Ty Dolla $ign, Steve Lacy, Tyler the Creator, Roddy Ricch, and YG, each performing their major hits.

As DJ Mustard controlled the decks, Tyler's sudden appearance had the audience on the edge of their seats, ready to "start an earthquake" with their cheers and applause.

Performing hits like "WusYaName" from his album 'Call Me If You Get Lost' and "Earfquake" from 'IGOR,' Tyler's set was a highlight of the evening, capturing the hearts of fans.

A touching tribute to Nipsey Hussle was also part of this section, with Mustard playing their collaborative track "Perfect 10."

The audience also enjoyed a special appearance from Tommy The Clown, adding a unique flavor to the evening's festivities.
