This will put a spot light on Drakes issue with young girls.
This seemed to have been forgotten but thankfully βheβ has brought attention back to the track. This is good as he needs to answer for his creepy/pervy actions around his underage fans, first!
I'm beginning to think Drake has a humiliation kink.
But I think it's more also interesting that he didn't choose to sue for defamation considering the contents of his lyrics paint Drake as a pedo, a BBL receiver, etc lmaooo.
100% and the fact that when you first heard drake was suing Kendrick, you expected defamation, and it wasn't, tells you everything you need to know. π€£
Wait but if what is being said in the article is true, that really is fucked up and he should sue. Sure it makes him look soft but if true, this is simply a business decision.
even if this shit is true then in what way could it be argued in court that promoting kendrick's songs using bots etc harms drake *specifically*? this isn't a defamation suit and it isn't a class action suit from a ton of artists. Just drake.
I read the above article and a more detailed one from Billboard. so far Drake has only filed a pre-action petition (indicating intent to sue) so maybe that's why the harm isn't clearly articulated yet. we'll see what happens when he files the actual lawsuit
The media pimps having to admit theyβre stacking the deck because one of their hoβs is pissed the deck wasnβt stacked in THEIR favorβ¦pretty sure thatβs how these laws got on the books when radio/electricity was still witchcraft π€
Reminds me of the βaiβ (bot) company that got sued for trying to steal Scarlet Johansonβs portrayal of an aiβ¦in that itβs the kind of story we COULD have gotten serious about decades ago when writers/musicians were TRYING to get their cut and getting called greedy for it.
He's just straight up giving Kendrick more ammo to use. This is such a goofy move even for Drake. Reminds me of Elon suing advertisers because they left X.
Imagine fucking all these people raw & thinking you got away with it then someone who hates you with that old black man hate that is impossible to get away from finds out you have kids who need their father/fiscal support & now you have to pay all that child support.

It's about platforms & labels artificially inflating his numbers.
Is it a fight worth having? Who knows? But if it was a "superior diss track," you wouldn't think it would need all that extra corporate help, now, would you? Β―\_(γ)_/Β―

I read the article and thatβs not what is happening. He is suing UMG (his own label) and Spotify. If allegations are true, this is merely a business decision.
Sweetheart it was a free diss track...FREE...Kendrick didn't receive monetary gain from a FREE diss track. Why in Gods name would Spotify collude wit UMG to boost streams for a FREE diss track? "Not Like Us" wasn't even out in 2023 so u don't even know wtf going on do uππ€£π€£
wait, genuine question, how is the diss track free? kendrick still has a deal with spotify to earn money from his streams on it presumably and heβs probably making money off of it when it gets played on the radio?
Sugarplum I knows you don't think that. The free song is only going to boost his whole catalog? You think he didn't get paid for the Pop Out? Minus the song is he doing the halftime show?
Drake doesn't seem to understand that he needs to sit down and shut up
Even if he wins this, somehow, does he really think this is gonna go well for him in the industry?
Like, he's got a TON of negative press at this point from all the theft and other stuff.
I live for the day when someone says βbut youβre not evenβ¦ [scenario]β, and the person comes back with solid proof thar they are. Badly explained. Imagine if someone defended Taylor Swift, and someone said βsheβs not going to fuck you, mateβ, and that person came back and said βIβm Travis Kelceβ.
Seriously? Itβs almost insulting that he thinks pay for play is the reason the track hit so big?? How about talent, brilliant marketing and a Pulitzer Prize winning artist?? #younotlikehim
Didn't expect this. I mean the last high profile celebrity that "bit the hand that fed them" went from high profile parties to prison attire. He might want to rethink this. However with his well known "insecurities"...I doubt he will
He's suing UMG and Spotify claiming they colluded to inflate "Not Like Us" streams. So he is in fact suing Kendrick too cuz there's no way he can say they used payola n bots n it not directly affect Kendrick or his song!
GOOD CALLβ¦THESE DISS TRACKS ARE PART OF THE WHOLE BULLY SHIT ON EACH OTHER SOCIETY WE ARE TRYING NOT TO BE. NOW IF WE COULD SUE MAGA FOR SLANDER AND DEFAMATION.. ESPECIALLY DEAR LEADER.
