Top 5 Kendrick Lamar songs
Rolling Stone ranked Kendrick Lamar’s greatest songs in February 2025. Here are the top five tracks from that list with context:
- “Alright” (2015) – This jazz‑rap anthem, produced by Pharrell Williams and Sounwave, became a rallying cry during the Black Lives Matter movement. Its hopeful hook (“We gon’ be alright”) and Kendrick’s introspective verses make it both politically resonant and timeless.
- “Not Like Us” (2024) – Dubbed the “death blow” in the Kendrick‑Drake feud, this diss track topped the charts and won several Grammys. Rolling Stone called it a decisive victory in hip‑hop history.
- “Money Trees” (2012) – Featuring Jay Rock, this track marries a warped Beach House sample with storytelling about ambition and its costs. The phrase “ya bish” has become iconic in pop culture.
- “Backseat Freestyle” (2012) – Over Hit‑Boy’s beat, Lamar delivers a dexterous performance exploring ambition and bravado, experimenting with tempos and vocal registers.
- “Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe” (2012) – A soulful plea for peace and authenticity, built on warm grooves and featuring vocals from Anna Wise.
