Kendrick Lamar Scores This Milestone For Feature On “Like That”

by

Kendrick Lamar has been an integral part of the mini resurgence in hip-hop this year. His verse on Metro Boomin and Future’s “Like That” has seemingly reignited the competitive fire that fans have been yearning to see again. It got J. Cole to respond with “7 Minute Drill,” but that has proven to be a failure as many think he fell flat on his face. The apology has further cemented K-Dot as the top dog in many people’s eyes. In addition to bringing the hype back to rap, “Like That” has done wonders for Kendrick, as he just scored a new milestone.

According to HipHopDX, Kung Fu Kenny has just nabbed his longest-running number song on the Billboard Hot 100. With “Like That recently remaining atop the chart for a second consecutive week, it surpassed two previous major works. Those include his guest appearance on Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood,” and the lead single for DAMN., “HUMBLE.” In terms of hard stats for “Like That,” they are equally impressive.

Kendrick Lamar’s Diss Continues To Do Wonders For Him

In just about three weeks, the diss aimed at Drake and J. Cole has collected over 109 million streams on Spotify. For context, it pulled in about 46 million in the last seven days. Furthermore, radio impressions are also high, sitting at around 10 million, and 6,000 sales-equivalent units is a respectable figure too. With all of this success, it would be wild if Kendrick, Metro, and Future were to team up on We Still Don’t Trust You. We can dream can’t we?

What are your thoughts on Kendrick Lamar earning his longest-running number one hit milestone with “Like That? Is this his best top-charting track, why or why not? Does it lose points for it being a feature, or does that it make it more impressive? Is this still the best song on WE DON’T TRUST YOU?

by

Last year, many of the biggest artists in the industry blessed the Hip-Hop community with amazing projects. From J.I.D.’s The Forever Story to Pusha T’s It’s Almost Dry, fans were eating all throughout 2022. However, one album has been in every single “album of the year” debate: Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. 

Obviously, K. Dot’s latest full-length topped HNHH’s ranking of the top 40 Hip-Hop albums of 2022. In addition to HNHH, Complex highlighted Mr. Morale as the album of the year. Furthermore, Billboard, Guardian, and NME also featured the record in the top five spots of their year-end rankings. Needless to say, Kendrick’s most recent project has received a lot of love from critics. Now, new data shows that fans liked it just as much as music journalists did.

As Jay-Z rapped on The Blueprint 3’s “Reminder,” “Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t.”

Thus, although fans can debate critics’ reviews of Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, they cannot refute the album’s streaming performance. According to a recent update from Chart Data, Kendrick Lamar’s latest record has performed exceptionally well on Spotify. In fact, the source for music industry statistics has confirmed that Mr. Morale garnered more streams than any other rap album last year.

More surprisingly, “The Heart Part 5” nabbed five nominations all on its own, including Song and Record of the Year, Best Music Video, and Best Rap Song and Performance. Lastly, the Blxst and Amanda Reifer-assisted Mr. Morale album cut “Die Hard” will compete for Best Melodic Rap Performance.
