Kendrick Lamar's blinged-out crown of thorns is front and center for his biggest moments this year -- first debuting it on the cover of his 'Mr. Morale' album, and most recently at K-Dot’s headlining performance at Glastonbury Fest.
He closed his performance in the UK this weekend with "Savior" in a passionate theatrical performance ... complete with fake blood trickling down his face from the thorns.
Kendrick used the moment to slam the Supreme Court for overturning Roe v. Wade -- repeatedly yelling, "God speed for women's rights ... they judged you, they judged Christ."

Sources involved in the presentation tell TMZ Hip Hop the crown is actually "comfortable enough to run in" or, in this case, perform in ... to a crowd of 200,000 people, no less!
According to Vogue, the titanium thinking cap was designed by K-Dot, his pgLang partner Dave Free and Tiffany & Co. ... and took 10 months to complete. It's made up of 8,000 diamonds!!!
Expect to see it plenty of times this year … The Mr. Morale Tour is stepping in over 60 cities across the world starting in July!!!
