Kendrick Lamar‘s latest diss track has one-upped Drake as their beef crosses over into the streaming domain.
On Tuesday (May 7), ChartData reported that the Compton rapper’s latest attacks aimed at his adversary has broken the all-time record for “biggest single day streams of a Hip Hop song in US Spotify history.”
“Not Like Us” has now surpassed Drizzy and Lil Baby’s blockbuster hit “Girls Like Girls,” which previously held the record of 6.593 million streams in a day.
As of this writing, the To Pimp A Butterfly rapper’s track has racked up 10.986 million streams.

“Not Like Us,” which was released late last week, doubles down on the Los Angeles MC’s previous claims of the Toronto actor-turned-rapper’s predilection for young children.
“Say Drake, I hear you like ’em young / You better not ever go to cell block one / To any bitch that talk to him and they in love / Just make sure you hide your little sister from him,” he spits.
However, he didn’t stop there. In addition to using Drizzy’s Toronto home on the joint’s cover art with tags implying its residents are registered sex offenders (“Certified lover boy, certified pedophiles“), K. Dot suggested that the 6 God also slept with Lil Wayne‘s girlfriends while the Young Money rapper was locked up on a gun charge in New York a few years back.
“Fucked on Wayne girl while he was in jail, that’s connivin’ / Then get his face tatted like a bitch apologizing,” he raps.
Prior to “Not Like Us,” Kendrick amped up the rivalry by dropping “6:16 in LA.” A follow-up to “euphoria” from earlier in the week, the cut alleges that people in Drake’s own team are praying on his downfall and even leaking information to his enemies.
That same evening, the Canadian superstar responded with a seven-plus minute joint packaged with a music video that shows a 1996 Chrysler Town & Country (the same make and model of car displayed on the cover art of good kid, m.A.A.d city‘s deluxe edition) being taken to the junkyard and crushed.
In addition to reprising the “Drop, Drop, Drop” from the “Push Ups” outro, Drizzy takes the war of words to a new place by accusing his rival of domestic violence, insincere racial activism, distancing himself from his native state of California and nudging 2Pac‘s estate to have his “Taylor Made Freestyle” removed from social-media platforms, among countless other jabs.
Less than an hour after the above track surfaced, Kendrick posted his rebuttal. “meet the grahams” clocks in at roughly six-and-a-half minutes and addresses each member of Drake’s immediate family — Adonis (son), Sandy (mother) and Dennis (father) — in addition to the Toronto MC himself, who is referred to by his real name, Aubrey Graham.
Anyone can make a diss track of drake for 15 minutes of fame. Doesn’t mean they will have a successful career. I can rap about taylor swift is a cheating bitch whose music sucks ass and I can get a no.1 single too. Doesn’t mean that my career will match up with drake’s though.
You just made me realize Drake is the Taylor Swift of rap. Thanks dropping that gem homie. #O.V.-HO
We forget that you’re just an obsessed gay dude who takes it in the H0L3v0
So you think Kendrick did this for 15 minutes of fame? The guy that already has several number 1 albums, platinum plaques, grammy’s, and classic albums. This is just so he can get fame? Odd take, but ok…..
Kendrick’s best selling album didn’t come anywhere near the sales of views and scorpion. And Morales sold less than any of drake’s albums. Anyone can buy a grammy (taylor swift did it for her midnights album). Plus his shit is overrated garbage
@Ovo Morale sold more than that flop Honestly Nevermind lmao
this shit SLAPPED and drake will never live down the A MINORRRRRRR or HO-V-O shit.
He didn’t have to respond as there’s zero proof he’s a pedophile. The police would have arrested him if he was.
the proof is mounting! soon it’ll be over for the CHOMO GOD
Kendrick’s projected a lot about himself in his diss songs. He will be arrested for pedophilia if he doesn’t end up dead as he’s no longer safe anywhere
Sure, Greg.
So why didn’t the police arrest Diddy or R kelly right away then?
you know what’s funny? me thinking about the next time we are going to see this shit stain in public again. Lol this guy is never doing a concert again. Nice life
What he’s going to do. Tour inglewood? Compton swap meet? Lol going to be fun to see this guy try to even move. He’s done
he just came off the largest solo rap tour… he good. Drake can’t leave Canada tho lmao
that was before he died
really just like Nipsey huh? how did go for him being the block hero down there. That bag is on Kendrick for life. not five weeks.
stay away from kendrick lamar for your own benefit and health.
I still will say it was absolutely dumb for Drake to respond to that like that record. He didn’t get good advice. Gotta have people around you that see the bigger picture. I like that record was a bait and they took it and Kendrick smashed him.
Kendrick is dead. You think he can play anywhere? He called Baka a pedophile. You think there isn’t a bag on him? It’s not jokes. The beef is going to end one way
kendrick good. baka cant leave canada. and it looks like drake has to move with 3X more security. life of a diddler, i guess.
Meanwhile drakes bodyguard got shot drake is the victim totally lost this battle on wax and in streets
Ohhhh He scared now. LOl!
Great Greg is hurt 😂😂😂
having a complete meltdown the comment section over rap beef from two people that will never care about him. It’s kind of sad when you think about it….
shut up fool no one asked you to get involved but you on a bitch cycle like kenny bleeding out clout chaser juice
I think you’re bleeding out all over the comment section 😂😂😂 You’re so hurt 😂😂😂
not as hurt as kendrick will be. just posting fair warning for clowns
“say “greg is gay” (greg is gay). Now step this way, step that way!”
He gonna cry in the car 😂😂😂
You know what? You guys are right. Even though Kendrick did start this, I figure Drake being from Canada and all that is going to take the L with no issues. Probably lose a lot of his fanbase but that’s a small price to pay when you consider keeping the peace in the rap game. I’m sure after awhile Drake will be fine with Kendrick closing every show with Not Like Us.
Well.. drop and give’em 50. I don’t like Drake, but if Kendrick dissed anyone else he would get like 20% of the streams. Good stuff all around from both artists, and lame stuff as well. I find it funny that Drake tried and failed to flip the pedo shit onto Kendrick with the R.Kelly line (although that is a bad look for K.Dot) and the Mr.Morale song. I also find it funny that people think it is on Drake to disprove the pedo accusations when Kendrick threw them out there with 0 proof (not saying Drake isn’t, I’m just saying we don’t know and Kendrick didn’t prove anything). It’s been a hell of a ride
Lets see “king kendrick” play a show in 2024 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 death
You’re hurt 🤣🤣🤣🤣
yes but
apologize in a yoga stance kendrick lamer
EVERY BODY DEAD
Drake still won unless Kendrick drops another diss like he said exposing more which he hasn’t.
let us know when dude announces a public appearance?
