Kendrick Lamar is once again dominating the Hot Rap Songs chart with his hit single “Not Like Us.” The track has maintained its position at No. 1 for 18 weeks, tying with several other iconic songs for the third-longest run at the top.
Released amid a high-profile feud with Drake, “Not Like Us” has not only become one of Lamar’s biggest hits but also matched Drake’s own record for the longest chart-topping streak. The song joins the ranks of previous 18-week leaders, including Missy Elliott’s “Hot Boyz,” Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop,” Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy,” and Drake’s “Hotline Bling.”
The significance of Lamar’s achievement is underscored by the fact that “Not Like Us” serves as a direct challenge to Drake, marking a notable moment in their ongoing rivalry.
