As a fan who’s grown up with both Dragon Ball Z and hip-hop music, I’ve been absolutely thrilled by the recent crossover between these two worlds that seem so different on the surface. Kendrick Lamar’s latest album “GNX” has sent the internet ablaze with memes and theories, one of which suggests that his shout out to producer Mustard is a tribute to Goku’s iconic Super Saiyan transformation in Dragon Ball Z.
Whenever Kendrick Lamar releases a new album, it’s quite a significant occurrence in the music industry. The song “GNX” has been making waves around the globe, spawning numerous memes due to its infectious beats and shout-outs featured in his recent tracks. Previously, we’ve witnessed some fascinating collaborations between the anime world and hip hop, such as rapper Logic partnering with Crunchyroll to produce “Cowboy Bebop” merchandise earlier this year. Now, many anime enthusiasts are speculating that Lamar’s latest hit single, “TV Off,” could be a nod to iconic scenes from the Dragon Ball Z series.
In recent times, the realms of anime and rap music have significantly overlapped, with numerous instances of these art forms interweaving. A prominent example is the “One Piece Rap” by artist Shawn Conrad, which provided a memorable entrance for the Straw Hat Pirates in North America. Fans have also produced numerous music videos that combine popular hip-hop tracks with anime franchises. Notably, there are several rappers who are avid anime fans, such as Logic, Megan Thee Stallion, Snoop Dogg, RZA, and many others too numerous to mention, who have made references to this medium in their work.

Super Saiyan Mustard
In the song “TV Off,” many Dragon Ball Z enthusiasts think Kendrick Lamar’s reference to producer “Mustard” was a nod to Goku transforming into Super Saiyan for the first time. This iconic scene is often considered one of Dragon Ball Z’s most satisfying moments, as Goku unleashed his rage on Planet Namek after Krillin’s death at Frieza’s hands. Although it hasn’t been verified that the “GXN” track is a tribute to Dragon Ball, fans have still been quick to propose some intriguing theories.

Dragon Ball’s Future
This year’s fall anime season has seen “Dragon Ball Daima” rise as one of the most significant new series. Despite not continuing directly from the events of “Dragon Ball Super,” the fresh TV show has already introduced some mind-blowing new lore to the shonen franchise in its early episodes. The tale of Goku and the Z-Fighters being transformed into children, for instance, has significantly altered the beginnings of the Namekian race, the Supreme Kai, and the Demon Realm. With several more episodes yet to come in its initial run, it’s clear that “Dragon Ball Z” sequel is brimming with even more unexpected twists.
As a die-hard Dragon Ball fan, I’ve been eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for Dragon Ball Super ever since its creator, Akira Toriyama, passed away. However, there’s some good news on the horizon! The manga’s artist, Toyotaro, has promised that the Z-Fighters’ adventures will carry on eventually. Although Dragon Ball Super hasn’t announced a return date yet, fans are hopeful that this year’s Jump Festa might shed some light on when we can expect the shonen sequel to resume. The latest chapters left many storylines resolved, but the unanswered question of Black Frieza still hangs in the balance and is undoubtedly a significant plot point that needs a fitting conclusion.
