Drake has filed a defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group (UMG), the record label he and rival Kendrick Lamar share, over the latter artist’s diss track Not Like Us.
The lawsuit, filed in a New York federal court on Wednesday, comes shortly after the Canadian rapper born Aubrey Drake Graham withdrew a legal challenge he made against UMG and Spotify, alleging they artificially inflated the popularity of Lamar’s track. UMG has responded by calling it “illogical”.
