Video Game Inspired By Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’ Fascinated 1.2 Million Players Within First 36 Hours

On releasing the track, ‘Not Like Us’ on the 4th of May 2024, Lamar took a dig at Drake and narrated a track that involved some serious allegations. On the very same day, Drake dropped ‘Family Matters’ as a response to this track. ‘Not Like Us’ gathered over 5 million radio airplay and 70.9 million official streams. By the 9th of May, the song sold over 15,000 copies and debuted at no.1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. Recently, he also dropped the music video of this song and soon the song has reached over 71 million views within two weeks.

This hit number made its way into the gaming world and according to some recent reports, the game has already reached 1.2 Million Players within the first 36 hours of its release. The gaming concept has been developed by Richie Branson. Yet, his real name is Marcus Brown II, and the gaming world is thrilled to get this game. In this game, the players can play web-based games like Kendrick Lamar. The players are given a baseball bat and they must continue to hit an owl piñata until candies pour out of it. Each time the player has completed the task they will hear the word “Wop”.

Branson mentioned that he made this game for the people only, he said, “I did it as a love letter to hip-hop and music, and because of that I wanted to make sure people would enjoy it. This particular game and the way it was set up, [with] Kendrick smacking owls around — I thought that would be the most enjoyable way of expressing my love of hip-hop music.”

He also added, “I didn’t want to put the actual music in there. “As a musician, I understand you just can’t rip somebody’s song. Since I’m a music producer, I was like, ‘Let me just remake the beat.’ At the 11th hour, I felt like the recipe was there. The beat was the sugar on top of what was already gonna be a great sundae.”

Yet after this game was published last week, another video game made by OVO engineers was released inspired by Drake’s ‘Family Matters’. And this game involves shooting Grammys. The game essentially makes fun of K. Dot’s fascination to win a Grammy. The game has a rapping voice that mockingly says, “Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone goes hand him a Grammy right now.” The rap battle between them seems to get more entertaining.
