Kendrick Lamar appeared on Louis Vuitton’s latest show, performing a selection of songs from his album the master. Morale and Big Steppers.
The show went live on Thursday (June 23) as part of the Vuitton Men’s Spring/Summer 2023 show in Paris, during the city’s annual Fashion Week. Lamar provided four songs from the album, three of which were debuts: “Saviour”, “Rich Soul”, “Count Me Out” and “In 95”.
