Kendrick Lamar is setting a new career Billboard Hot 100 record as his and SZA‘s “luther” logs its fourth week at No. 1.

“luther” now serves as Dot’s longest-reigning chart-topper on the Hot 100, overtaking his “Not Like Us” and “Like That” records of three nonconsecutive week each. He previously led the chart for a week each with “squabble up,” “HUMBLE.” and “Bad Blood” with Taylor Swift.

Meanwhile, SZA continues to extend her record for her longest No. 1 reign after topping the Hot 100 with Drake on “Slime You Out” and her own “Kill Bill.”

“luther” earned a total of 55.6 million radio airplay audience impressions, 31.3 million official streams and sold 3,000 in the week of March 7 to March 13. GNX, the album “luther” is on, moved down a spot this week to No. 2 to make way for Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM.
