Kendrick Lamar’s GNX continues to make waves in both critical acclaim and commercial success. The album has now reached a significant milestone, becoming the fastest rap album of 2024 to surpass one billion streams on Spotify, positioning it among the fastest hip-hop releases of all time on the platform.
In addition to this streaming triumph, GNX has also achieved another major accomplishment. Three tracks from the album — “squabble up,” “tv off,” and “luther” — have each surpassed one million units sold in the United States, officially making them platinum-eligible. These fan favorites have gained traction thanks to their catchy hooks, memorable lines, and infectious energy, cementing their place at the top of the album’s tracklist.
While die-hard fans may gravitate toward deeper cuts like “reincarnated,” “hey now,” or “gloria,” it’s the widespread appeal of these chart-topping tracks that have driven GNX to its commercial success. This momentum has contributed to Lamar being recognized as the best pop star of the year by Billboard, a title that sparked much discussion online.
With 2025 bringing a high-profile Super Bowl halftime performance, it’s likely that these platinum-status tracks will continue to fuel Lamar’s soaring popularity and commercial momentum.
