Kendrick Lamar‘s Drake diss track “Not Like Us” has debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart, earning the rapper his fourth No. 1.

The song is Lamar’s second No. 1 as a solo artist. “Like That,” “Humble,” and “Bad Blood” had previously hit the top of the chart.

“Not Like Us” logged 70.9 million streams in the first week, the most for a hip-hop track since Billboard stopped factoring in user-generated YouTube videos in 2020. This is well over the 67.3 million total recorded by Drake, Future, and Young Thug‘s “Way 2 Sexy” in 2021.

According to Billboard, the Drake/Kendrick feud dominates this week’s Hot 100, with back-and-forth diss tracks taking up four spots in the top 10. Lamar’s “Euphoria,” which debuted at No. 11 last week, has advanced to No. 3, while “Like That” has moved up two spots to No. 6, and Drake’s own “Family Matters” debuted at No. 7.
