Kendrick Lamar claimed the Song of the Year award at the 2025 Grammy Awards for his diss track 'Not Like Us' aimed at Drake. This win was part of a massive sweep for Lamar, taking home additional awards including Record of the Year and Best Rap Song. During his acceptance speech, Lamar expressed his admiration for Diana Ross and highlighted rap music's cultural significance. His surprise album, released following a summer feud with Drake, further solidified his influence and success in the music industry.
Lamar added: "This is what it's about because at the end of the day, nothing is more powerful than rap music. We are the culture. It's always gonna stay here and live forever. Respect the art form and get you where you need to go. I appreciate you all and love you all."
He continued: "This for Compton, straight up...My mom and pop out there doing front flips on the couch right now. My son is six years old. Go to sleep, it's past your bedtime right now."
