It’s been over a year since Kendrick Lamar released his hit Drake diss track “Not Like Us,” but his hot streak continues. According to Hip Hop All Day on X, it was the most-streamed rap song on Apple Music worldwide in 2025. It secured that title last year too, making it the first rap song in history to steal the crown two years in a row.
While this is certainly a feat worth celebrating, it doesn’t exactly come as a huge surprise. Kendrick took the stage during Super Bowl LIX at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome back in February, which a whopping 133.5 million viewers around the world tuned in for.
The record-breaking performance even prompted Drake to amend his lawsuit against Universal Music Group (UMG), which he first filed in January of this year. In it, he accuses the company of fueling the “false and malicious” narrative that he’s an alleged sexual predator. When he amended the suit, he included details about Kendrick’s Super Bowl halftime show, alleging that the threats against him and his loved ones only ramped up after it.
Drake “Not Like Us” Lawsuit
The latest update in the case came over the weekend, when Drake’s legal team asked the court to push back various key deadlines due to the holidays. For instance, his team has until December 22 to submit their initial brief. Now, however, both parties want to change the brief date to January 21 of next year. If the proposed schedule change is approved, Kendrick’s team must reply by March 27.
In addition to allowing for quality time with friends and family, the delay would let Drake’s team work on some of their other cases. This includes Blake Lively’s legal battle with Justin Baldoni, which Drake’s lawyer Michael Gottlieb is representing the actress in.
