Kendrick Lamar & SZA Tie Record Set By Diddy & Faith Evans With ‘Luther’
Kendrick Lamar and SZA have officially tied a record set by Diddy and Faith Evans nearly 30 years ago with their chart-topping hit, “Luther.”
This week, the GNX collab topped the Billboard Hot 100 for its 11th total and consecutive week. This now ties it with 1997’s “I’ll Be Missing You” for the most weeks spent at No. 1 among duets by co-billed lead solo men and women.
The song is also both K. Dot and SZA’s longest-running single atop the charts.
Despite originally being released in November, the song’s radio airplay continues to increase though streams are beginning to slow down for the mega hit.

Kendrick has been breaking records left and right over the last year.
He also recently smashed a touring record as his and SZA’s Grand National tour began in Minneapolis last month.
The tour’s first night saw Kendrick break Eminem‘s previous record of highest-grossing rap concert.
According to Touring Data, the opening night in Minneapolis grossed over $9.1 million from more than 47,000 fans at an average price of $192.70.
This means that Kendrick can now boast that he has the single highest grossing Hip Hop concert of all time, surpassing Eminem’s record from when he played in Melbourne, Australia in 2019.
It is also the first ever rap concert to break the $9 million barrier.
The concert in Minneapolis was also the most attended gig for both Kendrick and SZA outside of festival performances.
