Kendrick Lamar has never been too active on social media, but it now appears that he has a burner account for casual, day-to-day updates.
On Friday (June 16), fans uncovered an Instagram profile using the name Jojoruski, which is believed to be the Compton rapper’s online alias, and it features a number of random videos and pics of K. Dot.

In one of the photographs, the man believed to be Kendrick can be seen taking mirror selfies in which he is wearing a pair of counterfeit Air Jordans. “How im coming for my bday [hush emoji],” he captioned the post, which also includes two videos of him trying on the black and red shoes as a salesman makes a case for the product.
If the account is indeed K. Dot’s, it’s obvious he’s trolling fans as he keeps making high-pitched sounds during the recordings. The post also includes another video of him walking the streets of New York City with his new shoes after making the purchase.
In the comments section of the post, producer Cardo laughed off K. Dot’s actions, writing: “I’m cryan,” while Skillz wrote: “YOOOOOOU A WILLLLLLD BOY,” followed by a few laughing emojis.
Producer BNYX reflected on his childhood and how he used to get bullied for wearing similar kicks to the ones Kendrick was sporting. “They used to clown me in school for wearing these. They just wasn’t on the shit I was on,” he wrote.

In a 2cool2bl0g repost of the video, one person pointed out the botched logo on the shoe, which is the most obvious sign that it’s a fake. “My boy logo doing the electric slide [two laughing emojis],” they wrote.
Regarding the design, one user joked: “This man got the Deadpool 4’s,” while another poked fun at it by referencing Shaquille O’Neal’s shoe line, writing: “My n-gga in the Santee Alley Shaq 12’s”

The trolling continued as one person wrote: “Haha kendrick wears size 8,” while others were still wrapping their mind around the fact that the famously reclusive Kendrick Lamar is posting on social media like a regular person.
“We love seeing you livin’ a regular life Mr. Lamar,” a fan wrote. “Before everybody thought you was in a cave writing poetry beside a campfire with tea.”
In the same spirit, another comment read: “Wait so kendrick is a normal human being that does normal people stuff !?”
The Jojoruski account was previously private until earlier this week and has since compiled over 486,000 followers and counting.
Outside of the apple juice profile picture, the account features an array of Kendrick selfies, inspirational figures such as Michael Jackson and 2Pac, as well as a clip of the former TDE rapper feeding his baby daughter. There’s even footage of Kendrick playing basketball and lighting up fireworks in the middle of the street.
