Serena Williams’ Husband Alexis Ohanian Relives a Rare Bonding Moment With ‘Sister’ Venus Over Kendrick Lamar

Alexis Ohanian has built a reputation for being more than just a tech visionary and Serena Williams’ biggest cheerleader—he’s the ultimate family guy. Whether it’s whipping up pancakes for his daughters or sharing heartfelt memories of his late mother, Ohanian always finds ways to celebrate the people he loves. But this time, it’s Serena’s elder sister, Venus Williamswho’s getting a moment in the spotlight. Ohanian recently opened up about an endearing memory he shares with Venus, showing just how close-knit the Williams-Ohanian clan truly is.

The 41-year-old took to his Instagram to share a picture of the concert featuring American rapper Kendrick Lamar that he attended in 2022. In the picture, Lamar can be seen performing on the stage as the spotlight falls on him at the Capital One Arena in Washington DC. The picture also highlights the date of the concert that took place on August 4

Captioning the post, Ohanian highlighted that he took the elder Williams sister along with him for the concert. “Took my sis @venuswilliams to this @kendricklamar show,” he wrote. He also revealed that he has more in store for the upcoming year as he hinted at something exciting brewing. “Next year’s tour is going to be something else,” he added. Remember, it was the same concert where Ohanian expressed how Lamar’s performance blew his mind.

Taking to X back then, Ohanian shared a string of pictures from the concert. Captioning the same, he wrote, “Amazing show. Everyone should see at least one @kendricklamar show… We gonna be alright.” His latest post, meanwhile, has also reflected upon his admiration for Music and Lamar, which had come light a few days ago as well.

The American rapper and songwriter surprised many with the release of his new album in November. Lamar initially teased a cover of ‘GNX,’ the 12-track album which features multi-instrumentalist Jack Antonoff as a co-producer. The album and its opening track “Wacced Out Murals,” created widespread sensationalism and Ohanian was one of the admirers. The Reddit co-founder took to his Instagram story to re-share the post of Lamar. He also shared the screenshot of the opening song reflecting that he was quick to listen to the latest production.

But it is not just Ohanian or Venus Williams who are fond of listening to Lamar as Serena Williams too has reflected on her admiration for the American rapper.

When Serena Williams immensely praised Kendrick Lamar

Serena Williams’ love for music is not unknown to the world. Be it attending concerts of Taylor Swift or dancing her heart out in the pit during a performance by her ‘favorite band of all time,” Green Day, Williams has often highlighted how important is music in her life. And a similar reflection was witnessed when Williams shared her admiration for the work of Lamar.

Engaging in an interaction at ESSENCE Fest 2024 in July, Williams openly expressed her admiration for Kendrick Lamar’s  “Not Like Us.” “I love that song. It’s like the hit of the summer. When they play that jam, I’m jamming. That jam is jamming,” she shared pointing out how the music has made her a fan girl.

Williams is also gearing up for yet another music event at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival where Green Day is set to hit the stage in April. Sharing the flyer of the event on Instagram, Williams set her plans clear and wrote, “I know where I’ll be @greenday.” For the unversed, Williams has often expressed this admiration for the band.

Now, Alexis Ohanian’s latest post has once again highlighted the admiration of the couple for the rapper. What remains interesting to be seen is the plans that Ohanian has for the next year, as hinted by him.
