A federal judge is currently grappling with the intricate nature of rap battles and the potent lyricism of Kendrick Lamar’s chart-topping diss track, "Not Like Us," as it forms the centrepiece of a defamation lawsuit brought by fellow superstar Drake.
Drake has initiated legal proceedings against Universal Music Group, the shared record label for both artists, alleging that the company published and promoted a song he considers "slanderous." The lawsuit specifically targets "Not Like Us," a track that has achieved significant commercial success.
