In his Kids Take Over interview, Lucki mentioned that he was "literally" living at Top Dawg Entertainment because he wanted to get signed to the label "super bad."

"Around that time, it was like after like when I used to be around ASAP and them cuz I used to just see how like they was like it was like a family and it was like like developing the artist so I used to stay at uh it was like in Hollywood. SZA used to stay upstairs. Script stayed downstairs, Script not a rapper he like a manager in the camp."

SZA and Kendrick Lamar's Grand National Tour breaks an all-time record: Details explored

According to HipHopDX's June 27, 2025, report, Kendrick Lamar and SZA's Grand National Tour has become the highest-grossing co-headlining tour of all time. The publication mentioned that the tour has grossed over $256 million through a set of 23 shows across Canada and America.

Additionally, Billboard's June 27, 2025, report stated that the tour sold 1.1 million tickets, becoming one of two joint tours to exceed the $200 million mark, given that Beyoncé and Jay-Z's 2018 On the Run II Tour is the other one. Moreover, it is one of four tours to cross the $100 million mark.

The Grand National Tour is not only the biggest concert run for Kendrick Lamar but for SZA as well. The tour's SoFi Stadium shows on May 21, 23, and 24, 2025, were the highest-grossing and resulted in earnings of $40.4 million. It also featured the biggest tour attendance, selling 147,000 tickets, as reported by Hyperbeast.

While the Good Days rapper has achieved a record-breaking feat co-headlining the Grand National Tour alongside Kendrick Lamar, Rowe recently expressed that she had her apprehensions and demons to fight before she made it to the performing stage.

During a conversation with Chappell Roan for Interview Magazine's June issue, the rapper mentioned that she didn't used to show up to something because of the thought of never being able to win. She thought, what was the point of going if nobody cared about her presence?

"But now it’s just like, “F*ck it. I don’t have anything else to do, and I want to see where this door is going to lead.” Same thing with the Kendrick tour. 'Everybody’s going to see Kendrick. I don’t even know if I have anything to show these people that’s exciting and new.' But I’m just like, 'Fck it. I want to walk through the door. I want to see what happens in the uncertainty.' That’s the true magic," the rapper said.
