*applauds* the marketing behind this. *standing ovation*
It all began with this tweet, giving fans in Los Angeles 1 hour to get to the first address.

As it turned out, Kendrick Lamar, complete with a full band, performed a surprise concert on a MOVING TRUCK through traffic and for what apparently was a 5K. In conjunction with Reebok’s #GetPumped campaign, fans got their workout soundtrack come to life. Ha! I love it. Would definitely be running along with the crowd.
I also love to imagine what these cars stuck behind the truck were thinking… damn! Some video clips give the concept some justice below…
UPDATE: One more added.
