all subjective, but you did say something about impact which is inherently stupid because literally a sentence better I put not like us above ether due to its impact, and also impact has nothing to do with quality
Has Not Like Us surpassed Ether, No Vaseline, and Hit Em Up?

- Start date
I was a teenager when Ether dropped, and I find it crazy that this became a term used for losers in a rap battle. But Not Like Us has literally renamed drake's label brand forever, made him file the very first lawsuit after a rap battle, and got everyone in the industry publicly scream that he likes them young 
NLU has birthed not one but multiple new terms that are gonna resonate for ever.

Welp
Even God took a break on Sundays this incessant dikkriding is bound to have long-term effects 
On internet forums.The term ethered came from that diss. So did referring to someone as a Stan. That terminology is still used today.
Sometimes you gotta pop out and show nikkas
Certified boogeyman, I'm the one that up the score with 'em
Walk him down, whole time, I know he got some ho in him
Pole on him, extort shyt, bully Death Row on him
1. Hit em up because both were in the top 5 rappers alive and died soon after.
2. Not Like Us because Drake sued
3. Ether because Jay-Z cried on the radio after.
My personal favorife is Ether though.

shyt is much much bigger than hit em up, did more damage to his opponent than no vaseline, and got as many quotables as Ether.
Not Like Us is that 3 in 1 diss record

Yes, it is away and by far the most impactful diss track ever made, and we'll never see anything like it ever again. We can debate whether its lyrics are a substantive as ether's, but if the main goal of your diss track is to humiliate your opponent, then there is nothing better than a song calling them a pedophile becoming one of the biggest hip-hop songs ever. I mean Drake sued for defamation

I don't know if it's the best, but it's definitely in that conversation and the fact it's being placed up there is amazing considering old heads always had a hard time having any kind of consideration for new gen artists.
As far as objective metrics, it's hard to deny its goat status.

Yeah, objectively, it's hard to deny its legacy.
Impact? Yes
But this was their second foray tapping into this same marketing and release strategy
You can say this strategy originated with Hit Em Up ... The buzz worthy non-album single that releases alongside a press release style marketing campaign
But the prequel to this marketing strategy, the predecessor of this is that song where Kendrick sent subliminals at Drake years ago got the name of that song it came out and it had like a bit of a buzz with it
Might've been The Heart part something
