"Not Like Us" continues to be the song of the Summer.

Kendrick Lamar is one of the biggest artists in the world, and so far in 2024, he has been having a great year. Overall, it started with an attack on Drake in "Like That." This subsequently escalated into an all out war where he eventually KO'd Drake with both "Meet The Grahams" and "Not Like Us." May 3rd proved to be a wild day for hip-hop, and since then, nothing has been the same. In fact, "Not Like Us" has continued to be one of the biggest songs in the entire world.

It hit number one on the Billboard hot 100 on more than one occasion. Furthermore, it received a music video that has already blown up beyond comprehension. Fans are waiting on an album from Kendrick, although for now, Lamar has been happy to sit on the success of "Not Like Us." In fact, according to Chart Data, "Not Like Us" is officially the best-selling song of 2024. There has been some stiff competition, which makes this accomplishment that much more impressive.
