It's possible lawyers tried to gas him up into thinking he has a case. Either way his lawyers getting paid.

However if there is something here and he has UMG dead to rights... fukk looking corny. He can legitimately claim the industry illegally conspired to get him out the paint.
You think the entire bot based music industry isn’t going to come for his neck for this? At best he’s hoping for a settlement that lets him out of his contract and for some undisclosed sum. At worst, they’re going to countersue him for defamation and point out how they’ve promoted his records, the practices that he regularly uses that he is now calling illegal, and point out that the algorithms they use to promote Kendrick are the same algorithms they use to promote Drake.

@Loose you are wylin. You don’t sue over a battle
In hip hop and Drake himself has been propped up by universal. They’re simply going to say they were promoting an artist that was beginning a new contract with their label and that had an album coming up - as they would any other artist signed to them. This dude might as well just give up on the industry fukking with him because now he’s barking up their entire economic model.

The year 3030
comprehension is at an all time low. :snoop:

Drake has a marketing deal. He does not have a “you get to undermine me by selling secret ad rates to tank our deal to influencers and hiding payments to DJs and marketers"
Blah blah blah

You don't know the full extent of his deal .
And you still don't know if they weren't doing the same for him either.

If dot pulled the same bytch move and sue umg for alleged illegal practices would you side with him or Drake still?

So, do you think he’s doing this to get out his deal or he wants money from all the damages caused by Not Like Us?

I just can’t see how Drake wins in all this every angle I look at this it isn’t smart he’s not bigger than the label and he has A LOT of Skeletons in his closet even if he were to win it’s not over.

From a public perception point of view to a money point of view I really don’t know what he’s trying to accomplish.
