Drake Sues his own Record Label

Rapper Drake is suing his own record label over sour grapes and a lost rap battle with Kendrick Lamar!

I’m Tomi Lahren, more next.

Rapper Drake is suing a branch of his own record label, UMG, over the wildly popular Kendrick Lamar diss track, “Not Like Us.”

For those folks who don’t keep up with rap battles, I’ll sum it up for you.

Drake and Kendrick went back and forth with diss tracks over a period of a few months and with his song, “Not Like Us,” Kendrick Lamar definitively won.

Part of what made the song so viral was Kendrick’s pretty blatant accusation that Drake is a pedophile.

That’s also the basis of this lawsuit against UMG, which reps both rappers, albeit in different entities. Lamar is not named in the suit.

The defamation lawsuit claims UMG “approved, published and launched a campaign to create a viral hit out of a rap track” that was “intended to convey the specific, unmistakable and false factual allegation that Drake is a criminal pedophile, and to suggest that the public should resort to vigilante justice in response.”

Drake is also apparently salty that Kendrick accused him of appropriating black culture.

This lawsuit is not only petty, it may be more embarrassing for Drake than the diss track itself!
