Kendrick Lamar has released the visuals for ‘squabble up’, a fan favourite from his surprise new album ‘GNX’.Lamar dropped his sixth album without warning on Friday (November 22), his first release since 2022’s ‘Mr.

Morale & The Big Steppers’. It features production from Jack Antonoff, Kamasi Washington, Mustard, Terrace Martin and Sounwave and also includes uncredited guest vocals from SZA.The video for ‘squabble up’ was directed by Calmatic as opposed to Lamar’s frequent creative partner Dave Free.

It is set in a mostly empty ballroom with a rotation of cast members dancing, including Lamar himself.The scenery frequently changes – at one moment a giant Nate Dogg CD hangs from the chandelier while later an old Buick GNX (the car that’s the namesake for the album) bounces on hydraulics.
