Kendrick Lamar had a night to remember at the 2025 Grammy Awards, winning in all five categories for which he was nominated.
His hit track, Not Like Us, which is a diss aimed at fellow rapper Drake, was the centerpiece of his success, securing the following prestigious awards:
- Record of the Year
- Song of the Year
- Best Rap Song

The song, released in May 2024, quickly became a chart-topping sensation and further fueled the ongoing rivalry between Lamar and Drake, a major topic of discussion in hip-hop circles.
The clean sweep highlighted Lamar’s undeniable influence and dominance within the music industry, as well as the widespread impact of Not Like Us.
In his acceptance speeches, Lamar took a moment to express his deep gratitude for Los Angeles, the city that has been a constant source of inspiration and support throughout his career.
He also used the platform to acknowledge the community’s strength and recovery efforts in light of recent challenges, offering a message of hope and resilience.
Lamar’s remarkable night at the Grammys not only solidified his place at the top of the rap game but also showcased the power of music to unite and inspire, even amid rivalries.
