Impulse Buy: Kendrick Lamar's New Ho King Fried Rice T-Shirt

BY TAMARA PALMER

I narrowly missed the chance to attend Kendrick Lamar’s Pop Out concert at the Forum in Los Angeles last week, but I couldn’t also miss the opportunity to buy the best merch from the show: a “Not Like Us” fried rice T-shirt. It’s meant to represent the now-famous dish from New Ho King, the Toronto restaurant name-checked in the song “Euphoria,” but it is now an iconic West Coast style statement that I will be proud to rock.

I’ve been hired to create a custom recipe collection themed around rap rivalries, and I can’t wait to make a Fried Rice with a Dip Sauce and a Blammy, Crodie for it. Here’s the link if you’re interested in buying the shirt, which is $50 plus shipping.
