NBA (DR) / Kendrick Lamar (DR)
Kendrick Lamar has just made the most anticipated comeback of the year with the release of his new album “ Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers“. And big surprise, the name of Kyrie Irving is mentioned in the project, and not necessarily in glowing terms. Fans were amused by the situation.
The wait is finally over… After 5 years of absence, Kendrick Lamar has made his big comeback to the front of the music scene with the release of his album ” Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers“. A release all the more expected as his single “The Heart Part 5” has been around social networks in recent days, thanks in particular to the surprise appearance of Kobe Bryant in the clip.
And with K.Dot, it’s not just the musicality that counts, there are also the lyrics. So from their first listening to the project, all his fans lingered on the written content and on the pen of the artist. The topics covered are many and varied, such as crises in the life of a couple and toxic relationships, the relationship to death, but also the pandemic that has been raging in the world for more than two years already.
Kendrick Lamar tackles Kyrie Irving and his “anti-vaccine” thought
And in the title “Savior”, Kendrick Lamar directly quotes the name of Kyrie Irving when talking regarding the whole anti-vaccine movement. The rapper indeed questions the player’s approach to the disease, when it can be so painful. Obviously, following the huge pressure from his GM Sean Marks regarding his contract extensionthe Nets point guard is having a bad weekend…

Christians say the vaccine is the mark of the devil. Then he caught COVID and prayed to Pfizer for the cure. Then I got COVID and started wondering regarding Kyrie. Am I going to stay organic or suffer in this bed for two weeks?
When he caught COVID, like millions around the world, Kendrick Lamar mightn’t help but think of Kyrie Irving, who refused to get vaccinated in favor of more “organic” methods. He obviously wondered if the pain caused by the disease was not too strong to resist the urge to receive the remedy. In any case, the fans had fun with the punchline.

Guys listen, Kyrie was just mentioned in a Kendrick Lamar album… He’s only going to play 6 games next season ????
Kyrie Irving has been a topic of conversation throughout the NBA season due to his vaccine status, and obviously basketball fans aren’t the only ones who have wondered regarding his approach. Kendrick Lamar too has been wary of this anti-vaccine approach.
