Kendrick Lamar's 2024 victory lap continued on 11/22 with the surprise drop of his sixth album,
GNX (
pgLang/
Interscope), a 12-track project full of bangers, subliminal
Drake digs and enough bravado to fuel an army. The seventh song,
"tv off" f/Lefty Gunplay, is proving to be an album highlight and has become
Shazam's Biggest Mover this week, bumping
Lady Gaga and
Bruno Mars'
"Die With a Smile" to #2.
In the #3 spot is Kendrick's
"squabble up," which got the video treatment on Monday (11/25). The speaker-rattling and undeniably infectious track is dominating at
Apple Music and
Spotify U.S., respectively, landing at #2 and #1.
"luther," Kendrick's collaboration with former
TDE labelmate
SZA, settles at #4.
"Ghetto" by rapper
E.K.E. and
TruCarr wraps up the Top 5. The track—which recently went viral on
TikTok—leans heavily on
Akon's hit of the same name from Trouble his 2004 album
Trouble.
