Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime performance was a defining moment in his ongoing rivalry with Drake. His set built up to Not Like Us, the diss track that became a massive hit and won multiple awards but also sparked legal controversy, with Drake suing Universal Music Group.
While Lamar performed for millions, Drake was in Australia, continuing their decade-long feud that escalated last year. Diss tracks flew between the two, with Not Like Us being the most controversial.
Despite the lawsuit, Lamar performed the track at the Super Bowl, tweaking key lyrics but keeping its essence. His set, featuring a surprise appearance by Serena Williams, was widely seen as his victory lap in the battle.
