Kendrick Lamar Performs Drake Diss Track “Not Like Us” at Super Bowl 2025 — With Slight Lyric Change

After much speculation, the rapper ended up performing two of his summer diss tracks and also brought out Drake’s ex-girlfriend Serena Williams for part of the halftime show.

After a sweep of his categories during last week’s Grammy Awards, Kendrick Lamar brought his 2024 anthem “Not Like Us” to the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show.

The GNX rapper performed “squabble up,” “Humble,” “DNA,” “euphoria,” “man at the garden” and “peakboo” before teasing that he wants to “play their favorite song but you know they love to sue” — a reference to the Drake diss track “Not Like Us” and the current lawsuits surrounding the song. He decided against it, instead slowing it down, going into “luther” and “All the Stars” with Grammy Award-winning singer SZA.
