Spieler-Notizen

Lamar ist Franklin Clintons engster Freund, ein Mitglied der Families aus Chamberlain Hills, das mit ihm die Davis High School besuchte und später gemeinsam mit ihm ins Verbrechen einsteigt. Er arbeitet mit Franklin für Simeon Yetarian bei Premium Deluxe Motorsport, um Fahrzeuge zurückzuholen, bleibt jedoch dem Gangsterleben verbunden, das Franklin zunehmend hinter sich lassen will. Lamar verkauft auch Drogen, hält Chop als seinen Hund und verbringt viel Zeit rund um Forum Drive, Strawberry.

Seinen ersten Auftritt hat er mit Franklin am Vespucci Beach, wo sie nach zwei Fahrzeugen suchen, die abgeholt werden sollen. Michael De Santa schickt sie unwissentlich zu der Adresse, an der Lamar einen 9F Cabrio und Franklin einen Rapid GT übernimmt. Sie liefern sich mit den Wagen ein Rennen durch Los Santos zurück zu Premium Deluxe Motorsport. Später schickt Simeon sie hinter einem Bagger in Vagos-Gebiet her. Vagos-Gangster greifen sie an, und nachdem der Besitzer im Kampf stirbt, behält Lamar das Motorrad, statt es zurückzugeben.

Nach dem Vorfall mit dem Motorrad und Franklins zerstörerischer Rückholung für Michael feuert Simeon Lamar und Franklin. Lamar erkennt dann in D, einem Ballas, eine Gelegenheit und bringt Franklin und Chop dazu, ihn zu entführen. Chop spürt D auf, doch Lamar verrät ihre Position, woraufhin die beiden ihn freilassen. Später lässt Lamar Chop zu dessen Sicherheit bei Franklin. Als Lamar und der gerade freigelassene Stretch Franklin zu einem Drogendeal mit D bringen, lockt D sie in einen Hinterhalt der Ballas. Stretch tötet D, und die drei kämpfen sich heraus, bevor sie der Polizei entkommen.

Lamar und Denise Clinton stellen Franklin zur Rede, als er in sein altes Zuhause zurückkehrt, und werfen ihm vor, die Families im Stich gelassen zu haben. Trevor Philips taucht auf und hängt sich an den geplanten Drogendeal von Lamar und Franklin. Auch dieser ist eine Falle, und die drei entkommen nach einer Schießerei und der LSPD auf gestohlenen Jet-Skis durch den Los Santos River. Franklin kommt zu dem Schluss, dass Stretch den Hinterhalt arrangiert hat, um Lamar töten zu lassen. Lamar erfährt außerdem, dass Franklin für Devin Weston Autos stiehlt, findet ihn bei Hayes Autos und spricht über eine Zusammenarbeit mit Trevor, nachdem Devin Franklin fortschickt.

Lamar stiehlt für Devin einen Monroe und hilft Franklin und Trevor anschließend dabei, Devins Sammlung nördlich von Paleto Bay zu transportieren. Die Polizei verfolgt den Konvoi, doch die Gruppe liefert die Autos ab. Devin behält ihr Geld ein und erklärt, es sei reinvestiert worden, bis die Aufmerksamkeit der Polizei nachlasse. Später nimmt Lamar einen weiteren Deal mit den Ballas an, diesmal von Stretch bei der Paleto Forest Sawmill arrangiert. Die Ballas nehmen Lamar fest, als sich der Deal als Falle erweist.

Franklin ruft Michael und Trevor an, um Lamar aus dem Sägewerk zu retten. Sie töten die Ballas, die ihn festhalten, und Franklin fährt Lamar nach Hause. Lamar und Franklin streiten während der Fahrt, doch ihre Freundschaft bleibt bestehen. Danach bleibt Lamar als Freund und Kontakt von Franklin in Los Santos, weiterhin mit den Families und seinem alten Viertel verbunden.

Als Devin Weston Franklin ein Ultimatum stellt, entscheidet Franklin sich dafür, Michael und Trevor zu vereinen, statt einen der beiden zu töten. Lamar folgt Franklins Hilferuf. Er geht mit Franklin in Ballas-Gebiet, um Stretch hervorzulocken, und hilft dann, sich durch die Gangster zu kämpfen. Franklin tötet Stretch nach einer Konfrontation mit ihm und beendet damit die Bedrohung, die Lamar wiederholt ins Visier genommen hatte. Lamar bleibt nach dem Konflikt am Leben, zusammen mit Franklin und den Verbündeten, die den Plan überleben.

Wissenswertes

◆When in a car with a wanted level, he will simply stick the middle finger up at cops instead of shooting back, similar to what he does when he is not in a vehicle.
◆As revealed in IGN's hands-on preview of Grand Theft Auto V, Franklin did not own Chop before GTA V; Lamar did. It was previously believed that Chop was always Franklin's dog. After the fifth mission of the game (called "Chop"), Chop the dog moves to Franklin's house because of the troubles Lamar has gotten into. In some cutscenes, Lamar is seen with Chop even after he was moved to Franklin's house, indicating that Lamar still has free access to Chop. However, this is only seen before Franklin moves to Vinewood Hills.
◆In The Contract update for Grand Theft Auto Online, it is revealed that Franklin has become the permanent owner of Chop.
◆Lamar's favourite radio stations are West Coast Classics and Radio Los Santos.
◆Lamar is the only non-playable character not to be billed alphabetically in the ending credits.
◆Lamar does not hold resentment for the Ballas, as heard while hanging out with Franklin very early in the game. He then explains that so many members from both the Ballas and the Families have been killed over the years and says that each gang should "remain on their own turf", and nothing should go wrong. Ironically enough it was Lamar's idea of kidnapping D that lead to the continued hostility between the Families and the Ballas, even though the kidnapping had nothing to do with the extended Families.
◆Furthermore, he enlisted the GTA Online Protagonist's help to spark a war between the Ballas and the Vagos during the events of GTA Online: Lowriders, although these occur some time prior to the events of GTA V, so it is possible Lamar's views on the Ballas changed during the period between the two games.
◆Lamar is one of the few characters that makes a reference to one of the protagonists' Special Ability. During the car chase in the mission Chop, Lamar will say to Franklin to use that "special driving thing that he does". He also claims that Franklin "looks funny" while he does so, saying that Franklin makes a "sex face" while using the Special Ability.
◆In the mission Pack Man, he will reveal to Trevor that he met JB Bradshaw (Tonya's boyfriend) in a threesome, in which they accidentally "crossed swords". This is also mentioned by JB on Lamar's Lifeinvader page.
◆Lamar has many similar character traits to Sweet Johnson:
◆They have similar voices.
◆Both are loyal members of the Families gang (CGF for Lamar and GSF for Sweet).
◆Both never plan to move out of their respective neighborhoods.
◆Both constantly criticize and accuse their respective protagonists of selling out and leaving them and the neighborhood behind.
◆If the player enters the in-game website PsychicShoutout and speaks with Mrs. Marcy as Franklin, she will say that she sees Lamar in her visions, having sex on Franklin's bed. This is the possible hint that Lamar has a much closer relationship with Denise Clinton, due to his multiple positive comments about her appearance. Another reference on that matter is that during the mission Hood Safari, Lamar is seen going out of Franklin's house with her, both supporting each other.
◆During cutscenes, Lamar is noticeably taller than Franklin, but upon transitioning to gameplay, he appears to be slightly shorter than Franklin. The reason for this is unknown.
◆Lamar's height is often mentioned by the other characters, Franklin even shouts "Where the tall dude at?!" during the firefight in Lamar Down.
◆On West Coast Classics, DJ Pooh will occasionally do a shout-out to Lamar, making fun of his name and his gangbanger mentality, and tells him to "get his act together."
◆When hanging out with him, Lamar will not draw a weapon when the player does. However, he will punch any unarmed opponents. Also, he won't shoot any police officers when getting a wanted level, he will simply flip them off and taunt them with insults (e.g. "Eh, fuck you!", "Fuck you, you bitch-ass bitch!"). Oddly enough, if he is killed during a hangout session, he drops a pistol, so it's possible this is actually just a glitch that has yet to be fixed.
◆The only times Lamar appears outside of missions and friend activities is in Franklin's early SWITCH cutscenes before The Hotel Assassination mission, in which Lamar is fighting with either the LSPD or gang members.
◆Lamar has a set of unused clothing in the game's files: A red polo shirt with a white sweater undershirt, black shorts, black and white sneakers, a glove on his left hand, a black ProLaps cap (golf clothing, suggesting that he could play golf with Franklin and Trevor in the beta, but cannot in the final version), a green San Andreas Magnetics t-shirt, a white headband, a black motocross helmet that has "WEST SIDE" written on its back (suggesting that he originally wore a helmet while riding on a motorcycle), a grey baseball cap with a "B" on it, a green LS cap turned backwards and a pair of black glasses with orange shades.
◆In Director Mode, if the player chooses Lamar as an actor and travels to Families hang out spots, members of the gang will interact with Lamar and he can interact with them back (when pressing the interact button).
◆Although Lamar cannot hang out with Michael, he can hang out with both Franklin and Trevor at the same time. Lamar is the only non-playable character that can be part of a hang out trio. This is likely due to the fact that he cannot be spooked by a shoot-out which is what a high number of players like to do when they are hanging out with main other protagonists.
◆If Trevor sends a photo of an animal he just hunted to Lamar, Lamar will reply by telling Trevor that he "only smokes homies with two legs!".
◆Choosing to kill Michael or Trevor permanently shifts the relationship between Franklin and Lamar. Lamar becomes wary and distrustful, viewing Franklin as a "cold" and "snakey" sell-out rather than a fellow gangster. Ultimately, Lamar acts as a mirror for the player's betrayal, highlighting the deep personal cost of Franklin's choice.
◆If the GTA Online Protagonist is male, Lamar will mention that the player is shorter than he thought. If the player is female, he will attempt to hit on her but will be rejected.
◆In the GTA Online introduction, if the player selects the Fugitive as starting car, Lamar Davis mentions he used to own a Cheval Fugitive. He will start talking how it's a good drive-by car but won't finish his sentence and simply claim it's a good car.
◆During Mall Or Nothing, Lamar's "player" rank will be 99.
◆The player can buy a watch identical to Lamar's, called the Deep Sea Watch.
◆Lamar's playable appearances in the Short Trip missions and the Double Down Adversary Modes in The Contract update make him the first deuteragonist in the series to play the role of a protagonist (even if only for a short time) in another game.
◆When playing as Lamar, the background of his interaction menu features marijuana leaves similar to those of Franklin, albeit larger.
