The story behind the crown.
Kendrick Lamar Has An Iced Out $3M Crown, And Here’s What I Know About It
After a five-year hiatus, Kendrick Lamar burst back into music with his album Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers. With popular commentary suggesting this is his most vulnerable and transparent album, K-Dot’s latest musical effort didn’t come without its fair share of hidden messages and deep meanings. At the top of that list was the cover art, most notably, the diamond-encrusted crown he’s been wearing since he announced the album. Looking to figure out the infatuation and reasoning behind the crown, Lamar and his team have dropped some breadcrumbs about it.
Samir Hussein / Samir Hussein / WireImageWhile I have my speculations that the crown has several meanings, Dave Free explained to Vogue that the crown is “a godly representation of hood philosophies told from a digestible youthful lens.” On the other hand, Kendrick personally stated after a recent performance of “Savior” that the song was his favorite because it speaks on imperfections. And he wears the crown as a personal reminder. “They judge you, they judge Christ,” Kendrick said. You see? Multiple meanings!
Patience Is Really a Virtue
Unlike any other piece at Tiffany’s, Kendrick couldn’t just walk into the store and pick up the crown. The exclusive headpiece was designed over 10 months and took over 1,300 hours between four craftsmen to handset the diamonds.
He’s Also Not Saweetie, But This Crown Is So Icy
Tiffany & Co. / Via tiffany.comKendrick’s crown of thorns includes 8,000 cobblestone micro pavé diamonds totaling more than 137 carats and weighs an estimated 200g. It looks light, but that has to be a heavy weight to carry.
It Came with a Seven-Figure Price Tag
Louis Vuitton / Via youtube.comBeyond the Glastonbury Festival, Kendrick was spotted during a Louis Vuitton fashion show in Paris for Fashion Week. I, too, would wear that joint everywhere if I had a $3 million crown.
There’s Nothing Else Like It in the World
TIffany & Co. / Via tiffany.comA part of the crown’s mystique is that there is nothing else in the world like it. Tiffany’s made the crown exclusively for the Compton native and even engraved “Mr. Morale” on the headpiece before finding its place in the coveted blue box.
Tell us what you think about Kendrick’s crown. Is it too much or just enough?
