Thanks to social media, celebrities can comment on anything they want anytime they want.
Most of them have been weighing on on the George Floyd situation, which has led to a national reckoning on police violence towards black men.
The pressure to weigh in is particularly heavy on black celebrities. Yet Kendrick Lamar -- who rarely uses social media or makes statements -- has remained silent.
Rapper IDK defended Lamar's lack of comment.
People coming for Kendrick Lamar like we don’t know he’s a person that does alot but says little. I trust he’s making shit happen behind the scenes. 📈

Lamar is expected to drop an album soon and may be waiting to let his music do the talking.
