“Not Like Us” is a diss track written and recorded by American rapper Kendrick Lamar. It was released on May 4, 2024, through Interscope Records, amidst his feud with Canadian rapper Drake. It is Lamar’s fifth and most recent installment in his series of diss tracks directed at Drake; it premiered less than 20 hours after his previous single, “Meet the Grahams“.

Primarily produced by Mustard, with additional work from Sounwave and Sean Momberger, “Not Like Us” is a hyphy-influenced West Coast hip hop song composed of a prominent bassline with lively, synthesized strings and finger snaps. Lyrically, it continues the themes first introduced in “Meet the Grahams” by doubling down on allegations of Drake’s pedophilia and sexual misconduct, while also criticizing his cultural identity and relationships with artists based in Atlanta, Georgia. Lamar first performed “Not Like Us” during The Pop Out: Ken & Friends, where he played the track five consecutive times. An accompanying music video, directed by Dave Free and Lamar, was released on American Independence Day.
