The magnetic push-pull of Kendrick Lamar and SZA — along with giant bugs and an Anita Baker sample — kept a Wednesday night crowd rapt for two-and-a-half hours during the second stop of the Grand National Tour in Houston.

Kendrick Lamar & SZA – who are currently sitting atop the Billboard Hot 100 for the eighth week with their “Luther” collab from the former’s GNX album – kicked off the most anticipated tour of 2025 in Minneapolis on Saturday (April 19) night at the U.S. Bank Stadium.
