Kendrick Lamar may have already been crowned the winner of his ongoing beef with Drake on the backs of his first three diss tracks ‘Euphoria,’ ‘6:16 in LA,’ and ‘Meet the Grahams,’ but the nail in the coffin for the Canadian hitmaker undoubtedly came on Saturday (May 4) when K. Dot unleashed ‘Not Like Us.’
An inescapable club banger, ‘Us’ not only gave the girls and boys a beat to shimmy to but also went viral on social media for its dance-inspired lyrics (in between claims that Drizzy was a pedophilic clout chaser who used other rappers like 2 Chainz, Quavo, and Future for street cred).
The response to the Mustard-produced bop has been so handsome it’s led it straight to the top of real-time streaming and digital download charts.

Although already projected to be next week’s Hot 100 champion (as we reported here), ‘Us’ – once coupled with streaming numbers from all the major digital platforms as well as radio airplay – could enter the all-genre tally with the year’s biggest first-week sales yet!
