Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’ Dominates 2025 Grammys with Five Wins
At the 67th Annual Grammy Awards held on February 2, 2025, Kendrick Lamar emerged as the night’s biggest winner, securing five awards for his track “Not Like Us.” The song earned him accolades in the following categories:
- Record of the Year
- Song of the Year
- Best Rap Performance
- Best Rap Song
- Best Music Video
This achievement marks “Not Like Us” as the most-decorated rap song in Grammy history.
The track, known for its pointed lyrics directed at fellow rapper Drake, has been a focal point in the ongoing feud between the two artists. Despite the song’s critical acclaim and commercial success, Drake and his father have publicly downplayed Lamar’s victories. Drake has hinted at releasing new music on Valentine’s Day, possibly in response to Lamar’s recent success.In addition to his Grammy triumphs, Lamar is set to headline the Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans next week, with special guest SZA. Fans are eagerly anticipating this performance, especially following the surprise release of his sixth studio album, “GNX,” in November 2024. The album features hits like “Wacced Out Murals,” “Squabble Up,” and “TV Off,” further solidifying Lamar’s position at the forefront of the rap industry.
Overall, Kendrick Lamar’s impressive haul at the 2025 Grammy Awards underscores his significant impact on the music scene and sets high expectations for his upcoming Super Bowl performance.
