Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" has made waves in the music industry, smashing records and asserting his dominance in his ongoing feud with Drake. This showcases his lyrical prowess and unwavering support from fans. 
The track secured a spot on the top five songs of the summer on Spotify by reaching 300 million streams in just 35 days, demonstrating that he is anything but a "one-trick pony." This record-breaking feat comes on the heels of Kendrick's surprise Juneteenth concert announcement, adding to the buzz surrounding his work this year.


Billie Eilish soars with "Birds of a Feather"

Billie Eilish's melancholic vocals and reflective words also captivated listeners. With over 855 million Spotify plays, "Birds of a Feather," from her most recent album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, has become a summer sensation.  
The track, which Billie revealed has evolved from a reflection on relationships to a contemplation of mortality, has gained massive traction on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Currently standing at the number one position on Spotify’s top summer hits, Billie's music offers innocent yet potent sounds that further demonstrate the artist's growth.


Rising stars make their mark

Chappell Roan ranked 2 among the top five songs on Spotify with the catchy "HOT TO GO!" taken from her debut album "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess". With her high-energy dancing and colorful characters, Roan has gained attention and fame, especially when she performed with popular singer Olivia Rodrigo. 
On the other hand, Sabrina Carpenter's "Espresso" and Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" are also worth mentioning as these have unique approaches to pop and hip-hop, respectively. Carpenter has managed to remain in fourth position with her melodies and fun lyrics, while Shaboozey's formidable flow and storytelling have steadily helped him gain the fifth rank.
This summer's music scene has been anything but dull, with Kendrick Lamar leading the charge and artists like Billie Eilish adding their unique flavors to the mix.
