This Diss Track Changed Rap History | "Not Like Us" - Kendrick Lamar VS Drake PT9
Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” reaction is finally here… and honestly, this song is STILL insane two years later.
In this episode of Hazed Reactions, Corrina, Rick, Robert, and Katie continue the Kendrick Lamar vs Drake beef deep dive with one of the most legendary diss tracks in hip hop history: NOT LIKE US.
This was Katie’s next step in the Drake vs Kendrick timeline after Meet The Grahams, Euphoria, Family Matters, Push Ups, and the rest of the rap battle fallout — and this reaction turned into a full breakdown of Kendrick’s bars, LA slang, hidden meanings, double entendres, rap references, WWE references, Atlanta culture commentary, and the infamous “A minor” line that somehow made it all the way to the Grammys and Super Bowl.
We break down:
Kendrick Lamar vs Drake explained
The meaning behind “Not Like Us”
Why people call Drake a culture vulture
The Atlanta verse
Kendrick’s references to Serena Williams, Lil Wayne, John Stockton, D Rose, Shawn Michaels, Sweet Chin Music, and more
The “I hear you like ‘em young” line
Why this became the song of Summer 2024
Why this diss track changed rap history forever
Drake’s response and the continued fallout
Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl performance
Why the internet is STILL obsessed with this beef in 2026
We also open this episode addressing the VERY passionate comments from Kendrick and Drake fans 😭 because listen… we are NOT rap historians. We are literally stoner millennials reacting to one of the wildest moments in modern music history while trying our best to remember everything in real time.
And yes… we also randomly talk about hunting down Taylor Swift’s Elizabeth Taylor 7-inch vinyl because that’s just how Hazed Reactions works.

When you guys doing the video?
This Thursday! Sorry, our schedules have been outta whack with the kids coming on the last week(s) of school so it's been insane here haha
Watching the public reactions to Drake’s release(s) is cracking me the hell up today! Hahahahahahaha
Please don’t believe that fireman rumors. Don’t disrespect Kendrick intelligence like that lol. I bet u that was a Drake fan that started that damn rumor lol
He said do it in your lane lol. That’s very salty 😂😂😂😂. Go check out humble, bitch don’t kill my vibe, DNA. Like those song was backpacking and political 😂😂😂😂
I'm a 37 white girl from Missouri and I've seen Friday 😂 Katie, ya gotta watch it!
The Dane Cook clip 🤣🤣 I miss his comedy specials.. I also am an older millennial who also believed Manson sucked his own dick 🤣 when I heard about the beef, I came into it completely unbiased as I hadn't really listened to either of them very much besides the unavoidable. BUT I will say I very quickly was going OMG 😱 no way, Kendrick! Every 5 seconds and quickly couldn't wait to hear the next and the next haha I did listen to Drake's songs too and I did like a couple but in terms of a hip hop beef, Kendrick understands and Drake doesn't.. he's beefing 10 people while Kendrick is just going after him. As y'all said the art of war, Kendrick understands and Drake doesn't...
