The Met Gala appearance for Harlow comes after the release of his third studio album, Jackman, which he dropped with limited promotion, last week. On the single, "They Don't Love It," Harlow crowned himself the best white male rapper since Eminem. He raps, “The hardest white boy since the one who rapped about vomit and sweaters/And hold the comments ‘cause I promise you I’m honestly better/Than whoever came to your head right then/They ain’t cut from the same thread like him/They don’t study, doin’ work to get ahead like him.” Harlow is also set to make his acting debut in a 2023 adaption of White Men Can't Jump, later this month.
As for Kendrick Lamar, he recently wrapped up his Big Steppers Tour. It finished as the highest-grossing tour with a rapper as a headlining act in history having earned $110.9 million from 929,000 tickets across 73 shows. He outpaced Drake and Migos‘ Aubrey & The Three Migos Tour, Drake and Future‘s Summer Sixteen Tour, as well as Kanye West and JAY-Z‘s Watch the Throne Tour, and more for the honor. The concerts came following the release of Lamar's fifth album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. He brought along Baby Keem and Tanna Leone for the tour.
