WHAT'S NOT TO "LIKE?" HUGE STREAMS FOR KENDRICK

Kendrick Lamar continues to rack up megastreams amid a high-profile beef with Drake, breaking the Spotify record for the most daily streams for a rap song with "Not Like Us" (pgLang/Interscope).

Growing each day since its official release on 5/4, the track earned 12.8m global streams on 5/10, which amounted to the biggest day ever for a hip-hop song on Spotify.

Head on over to our Streaming Songs chart to see the eye-popping numbers Lamar put up this week. "Not Like Us" ranked #1 with 60m streams. Combined with "euphoria," which checks in at #3, his anti-Drake songs racked up 100m+ streams this week.

And previous smash "Like That" w/Future & Metro Boomin is still posting big numbers. That collab is #5 this week with 29m streams. It was only a month ago that "Like That" opened with nearly 60m streams.

With three of the top five most-streamed tracks this week in the U.S., it's probably OK for Kendrick to keep wearing that crown.
