The audience at the Los Angeles stop on Playboi Carti‘s Antagonist Tour was treated to a hometown surprise when Kendrick Lamar made a surprise appearance. Carti and Lamar performed their collaboration “Good Credit,” which appeared on the Atlanta rapper’s latest album Music.
On Instagram, Carti wrote that bringing Lamar out in Los Angeles was “only right.” In April, when Lamar and SZA were on the Grand National Tour, Carti surprised fans with an appearance at the Atlanta stop for a performance of “Good Credit.”
In March, Carti released Music as a follow-up to 2020’s Whole Lotta Red. The album featured a staggering track list of 30 songs and featured appearances from Lamar, the Weeknd, Future, Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Ty Dolla $ign, Young Thug, and more. Lamar and Carti collaborated on two additional songs on Music, including “Mojo Jojo” and “Backd00r,” but “Good Credit” is the stage-ready cut.
In August, Lamar made a similar appearance during Clipse’s Los Angeles concert. They performed “Chains & Whips” from Clipse’s long-awaited album, Let God Sort Em Out, which arrived earlier this year. “This is our home city, it’s such a privilege to be in front of motherfucking legends, man,” Lamar told the crowd. “I’m going to be out there watching with you all, these are my motherfucking people.”
Lamar still has a stretch of shows on the Grand National Tour, which will resume in December with four final shows in Melbourne and Sydney to close out the stadium trek.
Meanwhile, Carti’s run is only just getting started. The rapper kicked off the Antagonist Tour on Oct. 3 and has continued working his way through arenas in the U.S. Later this week, he’ll perform in Phoenix, followed by Las Vegas, Denver, and Saint Paul, Minnesota. The tour is scheduled to extend through December, when Carti will wrap with a hometown show at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena.
