Pick a side, please. Seems this even has you a lil shaky and considering Drake's point. Why not just wait and see since this doesn't involve us?

You're obviously in the middle of this emotionally lowkey


Posting sentences with obviously no connection between each other because you're contradicting yourself with the literal next sentence.

You're the homie bro. I know you can do better.

Start with why Drake having fast food companies and random companies include themselves in this beef is different than companies currently doing it with NLU.

And seeing yall run behind @hex, the only one white mod and publicly admitting it is wild tbh. Pls stop that. If you disagree, quote and lmk. It's how I became cool with the anti Drake crowd. We fukk with the same music a lot of times and have good convos.

Have fun with it with this community.
A whole lot of words to basically say "I like Drake"

I said earlier in this thread that this is all about the Superbowl. He doesnt want kendrick performing not like us at the superbowl. My theory is looking correct.


I think that was a component. But the song has already done the damage its done, kendrick not performing Not Like Us isn’t going to take the sting away. He’ll still perform it on his sold out Stadium tour. If Drake pulled all of this foolishness SOLELY to keep Kendrick from performing that one song at the Super Bowl then he’s crashing out worse than any of us could have imagined.

I think this is more about Drake being upset he’s not top dog to UMG anymore. They’re not kissing his ass like they may have been even 5 years ago. AND its about money. Lots and lots of money.

He tried cease and desist on the 'Like That' record too. Coward

@No1 break this down
It could mean many things - they agreed on a monetary settlement or a renegotiated contract. Him filing this suit was a last resort after discussion failed. They clearly received a demand letter before he filed. But moreover, he never actually filed a complaint in NY. What he filed was a pre-complaint motion that basically said some people did some shyt but I don’t know who so you owe me free discovery to identify some parties. Basically, he wanted to force them to the table because this isn’t a suit he could win without any sort of smoking gun. The response would’ve been - we got nobody to disclose because this shyt didn’t happen and you haven’t alleged strong enough facts to show it did. That was basically their response plus some sauce.

But bottom line, they reached some sort of resolution that his counsel advised him to take. It also shows the he was doing it for the artists angle was bullshyt because he didn’t expose anything and walked away when he got what he wanted. He didn’t go scorched earth - just scorned. I’d guess they slightly modified his contract terms.

When a case is handled amicably, “without any costs” means neither side is looking for reimbursement for legal expenses or damages through the COURT or owe the court. It’s obvious they settled and came to an agreement
You almost never pay the opposing party’s attorney’s fees when you settle and the court won’t even grant that unless the other side was doing something egregious and totally in bad faith. 90 percent of cases settle and it doesn’t mean that anyone is happy, it’s just the cost of litigating is more expensive than walking away.

For example, both sides have big law attorneys who have raised their fees 40 percent in recent years. So Drake’s attorney - the partner is approaching 2k an hour and the associate on it is probably around 1300 to 1400 an hour. The same for the other side. Now multiple those numbers by hundreds of hours.
