Drake’s Label Files to Dismiss Amended Lawsuit Over Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’: His ‘New Allegations Are Astonishing’
Drake's label Universal Music Group filed to dismiss his amended lawsuit, calling his new allegations 'astonishing.'
As expected, Drake’s label Universal Music Group has entered a motion to dismiss the rapper’s amended lawsuit for defamation that he filed in April. Drake filed his initial suit against UMG in January over Kendrick Lamar ‘s “Not Like Us,” claiming that the label intentionally engaged in defamation by promoting the song.
