Los Angeles, CA –
Kendrick Lamar turned his “Pop Out” concert into a family affair by inviting ScHoolboy Q, Jay Rock and Ab-Soul onstage for a Black Hippy reunion.
During his show on Wednesday (June 19), K.Dot and his former Top Dawg Entertainment crew stood on stage for a rendition of ScHoolboy Q’s 2014 cut “Collard Greens.”
AD LOADING…
After running through the Oxymoron track, the Compton legend ceded the stage to the “Man of the Year” MC, who performed 2016’s “THat Part.”
Prior to that, Kendrick Lamar welcomed Jay Rock for “Money Trees,” “Win” and “King’s Dead,” with Ab-Soul also there for “6:16 in LA.”
Check out a clip of the reunion below.

Despite the heartwarming reunion, it’s unlikely that Black Hippy will be reuniting on a record anytime soon.
Back in April, ScHoolboy Q appeared on an episode of The Danny Brown Show, during which he was asked if he saw himself reuniting with his fellow Black Hippy compatriots.

“I’m not making no Black Hippy shit,” he responded. “Hell no. I’ll never do that shit. ”
When Danny Brown pressed, asking if he would consider doing it “for the culture,” Q snapped back: “Fuck the culture. Ain’t no culture. What is the culture? What is rap culture? What is the fucking rap culture?”

On a more serious note, he continued: “I think we’re all kind of on our separate paths right now. Dot is doing his own thing with pgLang. I’m doing my own thing, curating a new artist. I did that part already, I gotta have this second part ’cause I got like 18 more albums to make.
“So it’s like I’m tryna figure out this phase before I get to the third phase. And Ab-Soul, he’s working, Jay Rock‘s working. I just don’t see where we’ll ever have time to.”
That was far from the first time that ScHoolboy Q said that fans would never get a Black Hippy reunion album.
While speaking with Montreality in 2017, he talked about plans for his follow-up to 2016’s Blank Face LP and why people shouldn’t count on a Black Hippy project anytime soon.
AD LOADING…
“I’m already working on my next album,” Q said. “The chances of us getting into the studio together and working on Black Hippy is slim. There’s too much going on … I’m with it though. I wanna do it.”
