‘Not Like Us’: Kendrick Lamar’s anthem that will blow up the Super Bowl LIX
What was born as a diss track against Drake is now an anthem denouncing appropriation and ‘cultural colonialism’
According to betting sites, the odds are very high that Kendrick Lamar, the Super Bowl LIX halftime show host, will perform his biggest hit of 2024, Not Like Us. Although the song emerged as a diss track from a fight between the songwriter and Canadian rapper Drake, it is now considered a socially conscious anthem that fits perfectly with the competitive spirit of the final game of the NFL season. So high has been its impact that Drake tried to sue the record label in charge of releasing it to prevent the spread of accusations that it includes, among which are pedophilia and sexual abuse.
