Not Like Us gotta be the goat diss track of all time, right? It dropped on May 2024 and is still the #1 song, one of the biggest songs in streaming history and getting played everywhere… clubs, global sporting events, even political rallies. Most diss tracks stay in hiphop circles, but this one became a global anthem. It even won 5 Grammys, which never happens with battle tracks. The song was so massive that it’s a big reason Kendrick got to perform at the Super Bowl. This diss song became a global moment… something that’s never happened before. It’s truly unprecedented. Drake can’t escape the anthem.
Has Not Like Us surpassed Ether, No Vaseline, and Hit Em Up?

Considering the goal of a diss track is to humiliate your opponent, Not Like Us is absolutely #1 or at the very least in that goat discussion. it had one of the biggest impacts, not just for a diss but for a rap song period and got the dude to file a lawsuit. The damage it has done was very visible, and shyt has probably generated some of the catchiest quotables ever.
We saw the organic impact it had immediately. As soon as it dropped, Drake was already on the phone with his lawyers as people instantly started singing that song everywhere. It was even released for free the first couple of days.
One of the first times a song became instantly impactful before it even started trending on social media. shyt was already viral in the steets and club before publications even wrote the first article about its release.
No question.

It's not even a question 
I'll say that I prefer Meet the Grahams over all the other tracks. That shyt is the best thing the beef produced but NLU killed Ether and HEU

Hard to deny it. It hit hard, very hard, and impacted the culture in a way we have never seen before

No, those classic diss tracks were more organic whereas the kendrick/drake beef was boosted by a lot of celebrity nonsense, social media manipulation and conspiracy theories.

Ether and Meet The Grahams remain my personal favorites but in the grand scheme of things, objectively, Not Like Us is the goat one.
Here we go overrating ether again.
Not Like Us is basically Ether and In Da Club wrapped into one. The literal definition of nuclear diss record
Will be a very long time before we see a song with this kind of impact again, if ever
