I knew they was unoriginal
How about I change that last quote
We are in an age where nothing is original
Everything is plagiarism nowadays
It could be someone as big and smart as Kendrick or someone as stupid and lucky as a lil pump
Sorry not sorry but that's my point of view
Her name is Artist ????? WTF!!? OK
Oh god
Omg that bitch didn’t create a gold and black wall 🙄 bitch people been doing that hold this L bitch cause you will never sale any art work coming for king Kendrick and sza
It’s always a sad sorry bitch who wants the shine 🙄
Why can't this channel just disappear!? The amount of bullshit that comes from the mouths of these dumb asses. This is all Fake News.
hahaha, she was asked twice! to feature her work. she turned them down.. twice! so instead of dealing with her drama, they worked around it and made their own version.. now copyright..? SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THE DEAL. I saw her work and the one in the video, nothing alike.. most-likely just inspired by her work.. but totally copy? exact replica? no..
god man so many haters out there man… just be happy that your work has a dope ass song for it
Kendrick did the soundtrack for the movie all the stars is a song from the movie. Kendricks promotion team is doing a great job. This lady isn't looking at the bigger picture it's more advertisement for the movie and herself.
this story with no more evidence or clips of acclaimed stolen art gets a BIG FAT L for lack of info ……sound like fish shit to me
I'll believe it when more evidence is provided ….everybody wants money from something. I don't even believe what he saying either …sound like fish shit to me
It didn't look like shit was stolen lol she reaching frfr just bc they wore gold in the video like Egyptians girl bye…
Shouldn't be a stuck up bitch then
As soon as I saw that part of the video, I thought of Lina's work. So they definitely owe her something.
Don't bother watching this. They don't show the clips or even hint at what work was supposedly stolen. This video is just click bait.
Like the Warner Bro stole Sophia Stewart’s idea for the Matrix movie and they made Billions off of a black womans idea and probably wanted to pay her 0.0001% of what that story was worth like maybe a couple of hundred thousand. If you feel like you worth more then why settle? Keanu Reeves character was supposed to be a black man bc she said she got tired of seeing blaxploitation films growing up.
These are excerpts from Miss Stewart’s book called “The third eye”: “The black goddess is the mistress of web creation spun in her divine matrix. She is not separate from it, 💁🏾♀️👸🏾for she is it.”
Stealing from black artist and not paying them their worth is not uncommon and I hope that if the producers used that woman’s artwork for this video they pay her what she is worth!

I believe it was artwork from the scene where several African goddesses were standing around with gold outfits and gold prints surrounding them. It looks to be Lina Iris Viktor's work. She uses symbols, swirls and African numbers etc with gold upon blue, black or other dark backgrounds. I figured Kendrick or somebody would have had her permission to use the artwork. If Im wrong someone inform me. I hope they come to a resolution because I loved the video and her work.
So what??? That's why us blacks been down so long. Always tryna beef with one another 😒
Honestly ain’t expect that from either one of them 🤦🏾♂️
