Kendrick Lamar found himself in the middle of a vicious battle with Drake just a few weeks ago. Overall, most fans have him as the winner of the feud. While “Meet The Grahams” was probably enough to win the battle, Kendrick ended up dropping a nuke with “Not Like Us.” It is a West Coast banger filled with scathing bars and some truly hilarious one-liners. It originally debuted at number one on the Billboard charts. However, it was dethroned in its second week by Post Malone and Morgan Wallen who teamed up on the song “I Had Some Help.”
During its second week, “Not Like Us” was simply number two on the charts. While many songs from the beef fell off hard on the charts, “Not Like Us” proved to be a true mainstay. Well, according to Billboard, Kendrick Lamar is staying atop the charts for a third straight week. Wallen and Malone are still at number one, although Kendrick is currently second for a second week in a row. This is a massive accomplishment for a diss record. If anything, it shows the record has legs beyond just a battle and that at the end of the day, it’s a versatile piece of music.
