Kendrick Lamar nearly appeared on Mustard's collaboration with Young Thug and Lil Durk, "Ghetto," from his 2024 album, Faith of a Mustard Seed. The "Not Like Us" producer revealed how it didn't end up coming together while speaking with People for a new interview.
"I have no idea what's actually going on. I only attribute it to God and because nobody could have told me two years ago or a year ago that me and Kendrick would have the biggest song together because I was trying to get him on my album," Mustard said. "He was supposed to be on the song 'Ghetto' with [Young] Thug and [Lil] Durk and we didn't end up doing it, but it was like nobody would've ever been able to tell me, 'Yeah, you and Kendrick are going to have a crazy song, you're going to have another two songs that come out after.' I would've never believed no s--- like that."

Dot & Thug on the same record would complete my life," one user wrote. Another added: "Collabs can be tough to pull off! Imagine Kendrick Lamar on that song though, would've been fire!"
