The phrase first appeared on YouTube in early 2023 attached to a fan‑made mash‑up that blended Kendrick’s verses from "HUMBLE." and "DNA" over a cinematic beat. The uploader titled the file “Kendrick Lamar – Not Like Us (Official MP3).” The “official” tag was a misdirection; the track never appeared on any of Kendrick’s official discographies.
Check the file’s metadata (artist, album, release year). A genuine Kendrick file will list “Kendrick Lamar” as the artist and have a label like “Top Dawg Entertainment.” kendrick lamar not like us mp3
