I can’t believe Drake survived having Kendrick’s diss track become the song of the summer.

“Not Like Us” broke numerous records on the streaming platform Spotify and peaked at number one in ten countries, while charting in the top ten in over 20 additional countries.

“Not Like Us” won all five of its Grammy nominations at the 67th ceremony: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Music Video. It is tied with the 5th Dimension’s “Up, Up and Away” as the most-awarded song in Grammy history. Lamar first performed “Not Like Us” live on Juneteenth 2024 during The Pop Out: Ken & Friends, where he played it five consecutive times. He performed it when he headlined the Super Bowl LIX halftime show in February 2025 and throughout his Grand National Tour from April to October 2025.
