During a chat with SZA for Harper's Baazar, K. Dot explained what "Not Like Us" means to him.

“Not Like Us is the energy of who I am, the type of man I represent.

He’s a man who can recognize his mistakes and not be afraid to share the mistakes and can dig deep down into fear-based ideologies or experiences to be able to express them without feeling like he’s less of a man.
