As a seasoned gamer with years of experience navigating the complexities of hip-hop lyrics and their hidden meanings, I have to say that Kendrick Lamar‘s latest track, “Not Like Us,” has certainly piqued my interest. Being an avid follower of both KDot and Drizzy, I found myself intrigued by the speculation surrounding this song’s intended target.
Kendrick Lamar’s track “Not Like Us” has been one of the most talked-about summer hits, sparking discussions about its actual message and whether it represents a subtle jab at Drake and his circle.
In a recent discussion for Harper’s BAZAAR, Kendrick Lamar explained the meaning behind his song “Not Like Us”. SZA initiated the conversation by asking, “What does ‘Not Like Us’ mean to you, Kendrick?” He replied, “‘Not Like Us’ symbolizes the essence of who I am as a person, the kind of man I portray.” He further elaborated on this character he refers to, saying, “The man I represent is one who acknowledges his errors and isn’t afraid to admit them. This man can delve into fear-based ideologies or experiences to express himself without feeling weakened by it.” In essence, when Kendrick thinks of ‘Not Like Us’, he thinks of himself and anyone else who identifies with this character.
Kendrick refrained from explicitly accusing anyone, but listeners might infer if the lyrics are about Drake or not. With tracks such as “Meet The Grahams” and “Not Like Us”, it’s clear that Kendrick intended to destroy his competition, with “Not Like Us” becoming one of the standout hip-hop tracks in 2021.
