Kendrick Lamar‘s Juneteenth “Pop Out” was announced earlier this month with very few details, but now the set times and a few of the performers have been revealed – though there are many more surprises to come.
In a post to X, DJ Hed rolled out the lineup, which kicks off with a set from him and his “friends” at 4pm, followed by Mustard and friends at 4:45pm and then closing out with K.dot and friends at 5:45pm.

Of course, the “friends” are yet to be revealed, but with the Rolodexes of Hed, Mustard and Kendrick, it could be just about anyone.

While Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s explosive feud may have seemingly fizzled out, Charlamagne Tha God seems to think that the Pop Out is a disguised dig at the LA native’s fierce rival.
“Doing a concert on Juneteenth? He’s not over the beef,” the radio host said of the June 19 show at The Forum in Inglewood, CA, which will be livestreamed on Amazon Prime Video and Twitch, and promises surprise guests.
“He’s still mad about Drake saying, ‘You rap like you wanna free the slaves.’ So I’ma do a concert on Juneteenth at The Forum. Mind you, think about this: Kendrick hasn’t performed ‘Not Like Us’ anywhere. He hasn’t performed any of these diss records anywhere. We’re seeing all of these videos of how ‘Not Like Us’ is turning up in L.A.”
Charlamagne added: “The Forum? Juneteenth? Inglewood? That’s God! We’re probably gonna be able to hear it in New York. When ‘Not Like Us’ comes on out there, if you’re on the East Coast, you’re probably gonna hear it!”

After his comments were reposted by an Instagram account along with what he called a “clickbait headline,” the Breakfast Club co-host clarified: “It’s simple[.] Drake said ‘You always rapping like you trying to get the slaves free.’
“Ok Cool so Dot says well watch me spike the football and do this victory lap on Juneteenth the day that commemorates the ending of slavery in the United States. Makes perfect sense to me.”
