DJ Hed on The Pop Out, Kendrick, Drake's Missteps, 'Effective Immediately' & The West's Next Moves 

My Daughters group CUZZOS performed. Thou the mic was messing up, they did their best. We appreciate Kendrick and DjHed. Such an amazing opportunity

I'm Mexican, and believe me, no one was worried on "lack of representation" that day so it sucks that it turned into a thing here. It was Juneteenth, Kendrick had a whole list of people he chose for the occasion THAT MADE SENSE. It was not our day and that's ok. I love Kendrick and even being there that day at the Pop Up, I had no expectation or was looking to see what Latino's were there because that's not what that day was about. Respectfully, just sayin. Shout out to DJ Hed for his perspective on this and speaking on us being part of the Hip Hop Culture overall.

Euphoria is my favorite diss song to come out of this... I can play it around my grandma and she likes it 😂😂😂

If XXL was smart they would’ve done a special edition “They Not Like Us” featuring all of the top up and coming artist in LA

They don't build'em like DJ Hed no more. Salute!

My respect for DJ Hed was super high before this. After hearing him say our name correctly, it went soooooo much higher! Shoutout to San PE-dro!

Another cultural mistep that I don't see many people mention is Drake aligning himself with the Hells Angels MC club. That club is notoriously known for being connected to the Aryan nation. Heck even 17 members of it was charges with hate crimes in Cali in 2023. Like That dude is totally tone deaf.

Im just happy the world finally could see how much DJ Hed means to L.A. culture #WESTCOAST

"Rapping like you're trying to free the slaves" is why I'm certain drake will never fully recover from this.

I'm from New York and I love West Coast Hip-Hop the music tracks are incredible. I can't speak for all New Yorkers but West Coast got love here as well. Congratulations Hed on that monumental concert 👏🏾 Kendrick Lamar is a beast he is untouchable ❤❤❤

One really dope detail about Kendrick Lamar's Euphoria performance at the Juneteenth Pop Out show that I haven't seen anyone mention is that the song was sampled by a Teddy Pendergrass song which was played in one of my favorite classic movies "The Wood" during Roland's (Taye Diggs) wedding scene. The movie is called the Wood because the story takes place in IngleWOOD, CA. Inglewood happens to also be where Kendrick performs the song for the very first time ever 🤯🔥 not sure if that connection was intentional, but it's dope af.

The pop out concert solidified Kendrick as the Forever Goat!!

Props to dj hed for shouting Miles Minnick! 🎉🎉🎉

DJ Hed was my favorite discovery in this beef. Love the show he does with Elliot, and watching him work on the Pop Out show was awesome. Keep it up West Coast. Cannot wait to see where it goes from here. From 🇿🇦

I wish the interviewer would let the guest talk without interrupting. You get more gems of info.

I love his "if I'm not involved, idc" attitude. Nobody can be mad at that. Little things don't be worth the thought.

Congratulations DJ Hed

Kendrick purposely said “you think the bay would let you disrespect pac ninja?” Because that bar itself showed this is about California as a whole. That bar was meant to include the bay and rest of California. Having e40 with his introduction was another reason to let the whole coast know it’s a west coast thing and e40 is an artist who he has repeatedly acknowledged as an influence. “I think the Oakland show gonna be your last stop ninja!” Again purposely showing unity. The bay and LA fuck with pac TOUGH. If you know you know! THIS TOOK PLACE IN THE SOUTH OF CALI, but the rest of Cali feels the vibe! Kdot made sure to make this a Cali vibe. I always hated how I was only 3 years old when pac died and was not able to experience his music and presence and even then I grew up on his music period! But man, I’m glad I’ve been able to experience another artist such as Kendrick who has given the same type of impact , to a certain extent, but he is still alive and able to do much more.

DJ Hed is so dope!!! I feel like I’ve been living under a rock bc where tf has he been in my life ???? I’m freakin hooked 😂😩

DJ Hed does not fail with his appearances. Dejon with the Rap Report Card painted Hed as a hater. Furthest from the truth. West Coast.

I really like that he decided to pay tribute to Whitney with the T-shirt he was rocking!

So excited for this interview!!!

S/o to DJ Hed and Kev the new music media is SAVED! Real ppl Real convo Real culture

Dj he'd has been everywhere let's goooo🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

That 03 flow set = chills. That Like What set = goosebumps

A not like us remix?!!!! HELL YEAH 😂👍

I’m Mexican and didn’t think bout inclusion I thought the show was perfect. The unity was amazing 🫶🏽

Let’s go! Congratulations on everything DJ Hed 🎉🎉

Didn't realize the influence Dj Hed had on the last episode yall put out(2ish yrs ago) But mannn the way he been repping the west and popping out. Shiet wouldn't be surprised if I seen a dj album coming out🤣🤣😭🤣😭

Remble set that off 🔥

Salute to DJ Hed🫡 but Drake holding that Camilla record is the smartest thing he’s done. Dropping music with an artist that just a few years ago was nearly canceled for racists tweets, bullying Normani, calling her the N-word, and only apologizing after being forced…def not the best look for someone already being called a Colonizing Culture Vulture

Dropping a like watching later

I miss y'all show man! Dope moment. Proud of both of y'all! W

DJ Hed definitely has become a staple globally not just on the west coast which is fire to see. For comedy gold please watch his conversation with Akademiks. The facts that he insults him before the Interview starts is hilarious.

Dj Hed is such a solid dude give bro his flowers he is the bridge between the culture and the industry

So glad they mentioned doja. I will never understand why she is never mentioned as a top female mc, the bars the creativity is really unmatched

Imagine it being the year 2024 and your podcast doesn’t have timestamps... Crazy right?

Would love to see Quincey White x LaRussell x Ray Vaughn x Coast Contra.

Dj hed has been killing it! Congrats man

There's video & still pics of what looks like LeBron wanting to go to the stage and join everyone but Savannah is speaking to him and looking at him like "don't you dare get on that stage!"

I enjoyed this interview

Can't front, Bootleg came a LONG WAY from the 813, TAMPA BAY!! LOVE

@DjHed man you know how to choose your words and for that your the best 🫡.

The west coast is definitely hated on ain’t no denying that

Thank you for mentioning New Mexico!

Everybody still sleeping on Snow Tha Product from San Diego. She's dope and can rap rap. 🔥

This is my first time watching this show. I like it! Thanks for the content.

This was a great episode shout out to kev and dj he'd

DJ gives Hed is INSANE ☠

Dj Hed is so cool fr

When Someone talking About How Short or this ..I seen the Video with ASAP Rocky with Drake.. PROBLEMS.. and I Seen Kendrick Lamar..I Said He Is Special and Talented and As Far About him Short..He Is Smooth and He was 8ft .Talk.and I know about Hip Hop and He Can ""RAP and A Artist.. For get Big three..He Is Very Talented..I thought Him and J.Cole..Would of Made a Great Song.. Don't Get Me Wrong Drake make Good Music.. But U have to Look at the TRUE Talent and the Words he Puts Together.. Brought Me Back to the Beginning..He Is Smooth and Great and I Love his Stardom..He is HUMBLE MAN and Don't Have Nothing to Do How Short his Height..He looked Taller than THEM...(Periot)...

Absolutely here for the Kendrick celebration.

I'm from Philly and I think a lot of the West Coast hate is straight out of New York...a LOT of NY people are still salty over Pac v BIG...I for one have always loved the West

45:23 Shout out to DJ Head for giving a Christian Rapper some love. Although, I’m no longer in the West my heart will always pump for Christside first and then the Westside.

6:16 set the tone for me and the record I play atleast once a day

Thank u Bootleg kev for playing Euphoria on ur radio set. I be otw to work n catch the intro of Euphoria and always appreciate that 2 minute drive to work😤😭👌👌👌 u be playing the whole mf song too 🙏

Respect to DJ head

Not Hed keeping up his “Jeremy says the n-word” campaign on other platforms 😩 I love Hed too bad, but leave that man alone 😭🤣

Their are literal grown men who copy and paste the same stupid “Drake won but ur not prepared for that” on anything about Kendrick and friends related

I NO I HAD A BALL!! IT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY❤❤

I'm from New York but growing up I loved west coast music they always had they own thing goin I gota get up on some of new artists coming from the west side

Hed you had a good conversation about Roddy. Being from my the city you have tap into reality keep the West going

Fiji water got a weird case why is it around lol

shout out dj hed for starting ray vaughn at the beginning of his set at the pop out, heard that song he did live at another show and it was fire !

Them Ja jokes at the end was funny AF 😭😭😭😭

I love my RU-vid premium/ Spotify, but damn hit me right in the feels when I think about radio growing up and now being in my mid-thirties......damn why does that sound like an insult now.

That Friday was amazing! I didn’t go bed for about 3 days cos I was too excited.. my kids was laughing at me cos I was so excited n happy!(been awhile) King k was always gonna win.. Drake has ruined music! And them tracks he put out was bad he defo didn’t write push ups.. Drake has never been or will never be an elite hip hop artist he just spits well but he don’t write it.. how you calling yourself no1 when everyone else is doing the writing?! Nah nah he trash!

Btw Dj Hed is dope good interview.

Yes 100% 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Shout to Hed from New Mexico

Where tf is kev getting these shirts?! 😂 they fire

Shout out Remble for representing San Pedro ! 🫡

1. Kendrick 2. Andre 3000 3. Jay 4. PAC 5. Wayne

I thought that was Paris Hilton’s DJ name!!

“DJ Gives Hed” 🤣🤣🤣

Dj GivesHed is crazyyy😂😂😂😭😭😭

camila cebello is also super racist doing a song with her is wild

Dj Hed rock wit P-Lo 🤘🏽

Came here after a Stevie Knight reaction ❤

Hed coming over here talking with Kev and *still* dunking on Jeremy is cold. 1:13:51💀🤣

WEST COAST📈 Media and music running the world

Not surprise production was behind schedule, the doors opened 30 minutes late too all make sense now

Shout out miles minnick! From West Pittsburg 💯

We knew this cuz we know kendrick is Calculated. (Unlike Meek) his body of work also shows too many concepts n just the capability that he go where most artists never go. His music touches on subjects Drake has Never touched on.

❤

Who the hell be hating on the west coast? At this point its not even about East and West like back in the day. Its all about good music, Pretty much every region sounds the same now anyway.

❤🎉🎉🎉

What was Hed's commentary about Dr Dre?

DJ Hed look like Hannibal Burress

I don’t think they hate the west so much as they’re just Drake nut huggers. Too many people grew up on N.W.A., Death Row, Pac, Cube,Kendrick and Nip. These people just can’t handle Drake getting his back kicked in and it’s making them jump out the window.

OT Genesis was missing

Hey but really why didnt he go to Hawkins?

Kendrick over Wayne? I got Ja-z as the goat but my Mount Rushmore is Jay-z, Nas, Snoop and Wayne.

So glad Lebron didn’t hit the stage

35:41 what's even more wild to think about is that it was Drake making those comments...... like huh? We know people write for you but damn, that was tone deaf as fuck.

Maan I was wondering where Vince was

Again Again Again🤣

Hit-Girl Lena could be the girl face of the West ??? 🌊

Drake’s Push ups was soooo trash 😂 …the name alone is wack!!

Talk yo' ish Hed
