Kendrick Lamar and SZA Break Another Record


Kendrick Lamar and SZA's 'Luther' breaks another record on the Billboard charts...

After each individually holding the record, Kendrick Lamar and SZA combine forces to claim the longest-running No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart as their collaboration “Luther” reaches an unprecedented 23rd week at the top. The crowning feat, on the list dated June 7, dates to the chart becoming the singular standard genre survey in October 1958.
With its 23rd week at No. 1, “Luther” breaks from the tie it set last week with Lamar’s “Not Like Us.” The Grammy-winning anthem scored 22 weeks in charge in 2024-25: 21 amid its summer 2024 run and its final frame this February following its much-discussed performance at the halftime show of Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9. Before that, SZA’s “Kill Bill” was the titleholder thanks to its 21-week domination in 2022-23.
For the historic “Luther” coronation on the multimetric Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, the single registered 16.5 million official United States streams in the tracking week of May 23-29, according to Luminate (down 1% from the previous week’s total), 57.5 million in airplay audience (down 5%) and 1,500 in sales downloads (up 7%).
