Kendrick Lamar and SZA have topped the Hot 100 for a second week in a row with their GNX collab, “Luther.”
According to Billboard, the single has arrived in the No. 1 spot once again this week – which makes for Dot’s sixth No. 1 and SZA’s third.

“Not Like Us” had returned to the summit of the chart after Kendrick’s record-breaking performance at the Super Bowl halftime show on February 9, but he knocked himself out of the spot last week with “Luther,” which was also performed at the show.
SZA and Kendrick are set to hit the road soon on their Grand National Tour, which was announced last month.

The arena tour kicks off on April 19 in Minneapolis, MN and wraps up on June 18 in Landover, MD, with stops in cities such as Houston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Chicago along the way.
The roadshow will also swing through Kendrick’s native Los Angeles and SZA’s birthplace of St. Louis, as well as the hometown of Kendrick’s fierce rival Drake, Toronto.

Last month, SZA also made it clear that she’s open to doing a full album with Kendrick after Sherri Shepherd said their collabs were the results of pairing “a genius with a genius.”
“Would you and Kendrick together consider doing a joint album?” Shepherd asked on her talk show.
“I would love that,” SZA replied, to audience applause.
“I think that would be amazing,” she elaborated. “He’s such a genius, and part of his genius is him being so elusive and so mysterious. I don’t know what’s going on as much as you don’t know what’s going on. When ‘Luther’ came out, I said, okay, that’s the vocals we’re using. And same with ‘Gloria.’

“I love that… He’s a huge part of my ‘fumbling and finding’ era, because I’m just trusting all of his expertise and being thrust into these moments. He’s so good at saying yes and staying grounded, so I’m just like, ‘Teach me, Sensei, what you know.’”
With the time they’ll have together on the road, anything is possible – but nothing is set in stone just yet.
