Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss “Not Like Us” continues to see major success, quickly becoming a fan favorite after dropping earlier this month. Arguably the most successful track of their entire lyrical battle, “Not Like Us” sees Kendrick accuse Drake of being a pedophile, coin his iconic “A minor” bar, and much more. Its significance in the viral beef has translated into streams and sales too. It broke multiple records in the weeks following its release.
“Not Like Us” debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in just five days of tracking. It also moved a million units in only 12 days. It was the fastest song to do so this year, coming in ahead of hits from the likes of megastars like Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and more. Of course, this has left fans curious just how much cash Kendrick has been able to earn with the song.
