Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’ wins song of the year, record of the year

LA Times  

Kendrick Lamar receives the award for record of the year at the 67th Grammy Awards at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” became the de facto song of 2024 when it dropped in May, and now it’s a Grammy Award winner. Lamar was nominated for five awards for “Not Like Us”: record of the year, song of the year, rap song, rap performance and music video. The category also was crowded with smash hits: Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ’Em,” Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso,” Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” and Charli XCX’s “360.” Grammy darlings Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish also were nominated for their respective hits of the year, “Fortnight” and “Birds of a Feather.” As Lamar walked up to accept the award, nearly the entire crowd sang out the “A minor” when the song played. Lamar also beat fan favorites “Texas Hold ’Em”, “Birds of a Feather”, “Please, Please, Please”, “A Bar Song ”, “Fortnight” and “Die With a Smile”.
