The NFR Podcast claims Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” is now the longest charting rap song in history (53 weeks). Billboard has verified its 53-week run on the Billboard 100 chart.

“Not Like Us” was one of 2024’s biggest hits, spending two weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 and 20 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot Rap Songs chart.

Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" Debuts at No. 1 K-Dot's performance of "Not Like Us" is fitting since the diss track still sits comfortably at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.

“Not Like Us,” Lamar’s final entry in the battle, is a joyful dance on Drake’s metaphorical grave and a victory lap that mocks the rapper with comedic vitriol, a perfect delivery for Gen-Z ...

This is apropos, given that Not Like Us swept the Grammys on Sunday, winning Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Music Video.

Drake’s lawyers have requested emails from UMG’s CEO Lucien Grainge and others, including Lamar associate Dave Free.
