Drake Files Lawsuit Against Universal Music Over Kendrick Lamar Diss Track

Manhattan: So, Drake is really going after Universal Music Group in court. He’s not happy about Kendrick Lamar’s diss track “Not Like Us.” The song, which came out on May 4, 2024, has some pretty serious allegations against him.

Drake claims the track spreads a “false and malicious narrative” that he’s a pedophile. He’s saying UMG knew the allegations were false but still decided to promote the song for profit. That’s a big deal!

Even though Kendrick is the one who made the track, Drake’s lawsuit is focused on UMG. He’s not naming Kendrick in the suit, which is interesting. He’s basically saying it’s all about the record label’s choices.

This feud has been brewing since 2013, but it really heated up when Kendrick made those claims in his song. Drake even dropped his own diss track, “The Heart Part 6,” where he hinted at planting fake stories for Kendrick to use.

“Not Like Us” has been a massive hit, breaking records on Spotify and even landing Kendrick a spot as the Super Bowl halftime show headliner. It’s wild how this drama keeps unfolding!
