The Toronto rap star accuses the former Top Dawg Entertainment MC of defamation for falsely accusing him of being a sex offender.
Drake’s own record label has responded to his pre-action lawsuit within hours of the news regarding the legal complaint circulating on social media. For those who may be behind on the matter, Drake’s company, Frozen Moments LLC, filed a legal complaint in a Manhattan court on November 25th against Universal Music Group (UMG) and Spotify, accusing the two entities of engaging in an illegal scheme to artificially boost the streaming numbers for Lamar’s diss track “Not Like Us.”
At the center of the lawsuit is the claim that UMG engaged in deceptive business practices and violations of the RICO Act, typically reserved for organized crime cases, by employing bots, payola and other manipulative tactics to inflate the track’s popularity.
