Kendrick Lamar’s Drake Diss Tracks Dominate 2025 Grammys Ballot, “Euphoria” Snub Shocks Fans

Kendrick Lamar’s ongoing feud with Drake is now making waves at the 2025 Grammys as multiple tracks, including “Not Like Us” and “Like That” with Metro Boomin and Future, are featured across top categories. Both songs have landed on ballots for prestigious awards such as Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Rap Performance, and Best Rap Song. Despite these nods, fans were surprised to see “Euphoria” missing from the submissions, which had been anticipated as a contender.

In a recent interview with SZA for Harper’s Bazaar, Kendrick shed light on the deeper meaning behind his track “Not Like Us.” He defined the song as a reflection of his personal values, representing a man of morals who isn’t afraid to confront his own mistakes and express vulnerability without compromising his strength. When asked how he manages to create combative music despite his calm demeanor, Kendrick explained that he sees life as a balance of love and war, allowing him to channel aggression through his art without letting it define him.

With the final Grammy nominations set to be announced on November 8, Kendrick’s chances look promising, while fans eagerly await to see if his lyrical jabs at Drake will translate into Grammy gold.

This year’s Grammy race has also been buzzing with other top-tier contenders, but Kendrick’s presence across multiple categories marks him as a standout, further cementing his influence on the rap landscape.
