Kendrick Lamar's 'Luther' & 'Not Like Us' End Historic Chart Run
Kendrick Lamar‘s “Luther” and “Not Like Us” have finally had their historic chart runs ended.
“Luther”, which had been at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for a record breaking thirteen weeks, has been deposed by Morgan Wallen and Tate McRae’s “What I Want”.
The hit single has now slid down to number five on the chart after originally being released last November.
“Not Like Us”, which last week broke the record for most weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 for a rap song, has also fell off the chart entirely.

It had previously spent a record 52 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100.
Kendrick did take another loss at the American Music Awards earlier this week where he was widely expected to clean up at the ceremony.
While the Compton superstar did pick up a win for Favorite Hip Hop Song with “Not Like Us”, he was otherwise shut out at the ceremony.
Lamar was nominated across five other categories including Artist of the Year but was beaten by Billie Eilish.
Eilish also triumphed over Lamar in Album of the Year and Song of the Year.
The biggest upset came in the Hip Hop categories with Eminem taking home both Favorite Hip Hop Artist and Favorite Hip Hop Album.
Lamar and SZA were also nominated for Collaboration of the Year but beaten by Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga with their smash hit “Die With A Smile”.
“Die With A Smile” also beat “Not Like Us” to Favorite Music Video.
Neither Kendrick nor Eminem attended the awards show in person.
Despite failing to come out victorious at the AMA’s, Lamar has been breaking records left and right over the last year.
A recent performance by Kendrick and SZA on their Grand National Tour in Seattle grossed $14.8 million meaning Dot became the first rapper to ever break the $14 million mark for a single concert.
It was the most attended gig on the tour so far with almost 61,000 fans attending.
Kendrick broke his own record with the feat after a performance at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas brought in a whopping $11.822 million in a single night.
