Luka Doncic Gets Name-Dropped in Kendrick Lamar Song

Kendrick Lamar claims that Luka Doncic is now a recognized icon in Los Angeles. The four-time NBA All-Star, who was just moved to the Los Angeles Lakers in a huge deal with the Dallas Mavericks, was heavily mentioned in Kendrick Lamar’s new song, “GOOD CREDIT.”

Fans are talking about the reference in the song, which is part of Playboi Carti’s most recent album, I AM MUSIC. Lamar’s verse includes the following line: “The numbers is nothing, I’ve been getting money, I’ve really been hustling, I’m Luka Doncic.” The Slovenian star’s newfound prominence in the City of Angels is cemented when the phrase likens the rapper’s control over the music business to Doncic’s influence on the court.

Luka Doncic and Kendrick Lamar: A New Era in L.A.

Doncic has embraced his new home since joining the Lakers in a historic trade with the Mavericks. The 25-year-old has made a quick impression on the city of Los Angeles since his arrival. He generously paid for Lakers supporters’ parking expenses at a game at Crypto.com Arena last month.

Doncic’s generosity didn’t end there; he further rooted himself in the community by contributing $100,000 to help victims of the recent wildfires in Los Angeles. His status as a city favorite has been cemented when Lakers supporters, ecstatic to welcome their new superstar, even created a mural in his honor.

Doncic’s prior praise of Drake, who has been involved in a high-profile rap battle with Kendrick Lamar in recent months, is among the lyric’s more unexpected elements. Some fans are speculating whether Doncic would change his musical tastes and side with Lamar in light of this most recent name-drop.

It’s obvious that the Slovenian sensation is all in on L.A., regardless of his musical preferences. It appears that his new city has already accepted him as one of its own, mural and all, as he begins to adapt to life as a Laker.
