Kendrick Lamar is kicking of 2025 with a bang. The rapper’s monumental hit, “Not Like Us,” has officially surpassed one billion Spotify streams. Lamar’s anthemic track, released in May 2024, marked the end of the highly publicized feud between himself and Drake and became a longstanding hit, topping the Hot 100 for two nonconsecutive weeks.

The summer single, one of several to come from a feud with fellow rapper Drake, was one of the biggest songs of 2024, hitting the top of Billboard's Hot 100.

One of Kendrick Lamar's most successful years was 2024, and it appears that the hitmaker has no intention of slowing down in 2025.
