In the ‘Not Like Us’ music video, there’s a brief scene where Kendrick and DJ Mustard grab some food at Tam’s Burgers while a dancer performs in the background.
TMZ reports that Tam’s Burgers stated that their business has increased by 30% to 40% since Kendrick Lamar released the visuals for ‘Not Like Us.’ Tam’s manager, Lauro Hernandez, and his son Bryan Noe told TMZ Hip Hop that customers have been flooding their Rosecrans Avenue location in Compton since the July 4 release.
Both Lauro and Bryan told the outlet that the majority of visitors mentioned ‘Not Like Us’ as their reason for stopping by. Nevertheless, the restaurant continues to receive strong support from longtime locals.
