In a developing story, Drake has made a second legal filing against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar‘s diss track ‘Not Like Us.’
And this time he’s alleging defamation.

Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Lawyers for Drake first claimed that UMG colluded with Spotify to “inflate” the popularity of the track by way of alleged use of payola and streaming “bots.”
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)The second filing, made yesterday in Texas and published today (November 26), centers on defamation.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)And this time, Drizzy’s reps are roping in media giant iHeartRadio.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)The rapper shockingly accuses UMG of “funneled payments” to iHeart as part of a “pay-to-play scheme” to promote Lamar’s chart-topping hit.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Central to the defamatory argument is Drake’s belief that UMG knew Lamar’s smash “falsely” accused him of being a “certified p*dophile” and “predator” yet chose to release it regardless.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)It read:
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)“UMG … could have refused to release or distribute the song or required the offending material to be edited and/or removed. But UMG chose to do the opposite. UMG designed, financed and then executed a plan to turn ‘Not Like Us’ into a viral mega-hit with the intent of using the spectacle of harm to Drake and his businesses to drive consumer hysteria and, of course, massive revenues. That plan succeeded, likely beyond UMG’s wildest expectations.”

Like yesterday’s first filing, the submission is seen as more of a pre-action move and is not a lawsuit. Yet is more a precursor to a potential suit and provides insight into the evidence Camp Drake appears to be drawing on to build out a possible case.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)UMG hit back hard at the first filing, deeming it “absurd and offensive.” Time will tell if another clapback is incoming.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Both Drake and Lamar are signed to UMG by way of subsidiary labels.

Kendrick you said “not like us” but who is “us” if no one called to congratulate you expect Nas. Your fake gangsta voice is unbearable.
And Drake, you a crybaby 🍼
Drake needs to accept the fact that people actually like this song. This song shifted something in the culture, it just did. Whatever Kendrick put in the song people gravitated towards. Also, if the record companies are paying for hits than how of hits benefitted from that system.
Drake us a b****!!!
Ok after listening to the song Kendrick said
I HEARD you like them young
He also said it’s PROBABLY a-minorrrrrrrrrrrrrr
He also said certified lover BOYS certified pèďophiles but he also mentions Drake’s crew so no real direct accusation about Drake in particular
I’d like to see how Drake can dispute that he is in fact- not a freaky ah- níğga or a 69 GOD
LOL
Aubrey is the definition of Karen. His Jewish white side out in full effect.
Who sues over a rap beef. Meek never acted this Karen, he took that L over Back to Back.
Jay never sued Naz. Even Nikki didn’t sue Remy for that lethal diss.
Aubrey really not like us!
Putting false accusations on Kendrick and his wife with ZERO proof to back it up. Defamation can go right back. I hope Kendrick has his proof ready to show cause fµck Drake’s b**** ass. He’s been terrorizing artists for over a decade. I hope all those people he had beat up and stole music from pursue a class action lawsuit.
UMG will NOT forgive him for this. Drake was more than happy to cheat his way to the top and doesn’t like that he never had a seat at the table. He thought he was shitting on artists with his deal and relationship with Lucian just for it all to backfire on him.
Jews are not white, you are obsessed and antisemitic. Jews come from the middle east, at least 50% of the people in the middle east got “white skin”, open a book and educate yourself and fix your black and white look on the world. It’s 2024 you don’t have to be dumb.
Now about Drake, he is a Scorpio sun with cancer moon, is very emotional and will never let go of someone who started a beef with him.
j3ws are whte you dummy. layoff the crack that fake star worshipping horoscope bs is false
Jews are from Judea, Arabs are from Arabia.
None of them is white even if they have white skin shades, get it antiemetic dummy?
And stop spamming the blog.
Dumb àss bîtch, eat a dîck and stay off my comments!
He’s a Kendrick bot
Drake the KAREN😭😭
Sore loser
So releasing diss tracks was fun while he was winning but now that his BBL ass got handed to him there’s suits being filed 😭🤣 what a crybaby
This is such a B**** crying 😢 for not having his way. Let’s be honest here, Drake with the moves you are now making, I just can’t deal with you, grow up
Every person that Drake disses in a song will just file against Drake
Dave Free
Whitney
Kendricks Kids
Serena Williams
Meghan
Riri
The list goes on and on
Drake has threatened people in lyrics
His ass will be bankrupt not to mention all the sh!t that will come out about him when is testifying under oath.
Drake is softer than baby sh!t.
So what? Record labels are banksters in it only for profit! They’ll defame you to make more money, then defame Lamar if somebody else will make them more money. Money-making pawns shouldn’t be sensitive, Aubrey gurl.
