He's trying to conflate the public perception of him losing the battle to them needing bots to make the song popular and as a result affecting his bottom line. The reality is people have ears and were paying attention all the way from "nah nah nah, you following through" to "certified loverboy? Certified pedophile"

I just read the whole 17 pages of the petition and sounds like all his accusations are from stuff he got 2nd hand off of the Internet (ie Akademiks streams). Like in that video posted about Drake using half of the story of Siri recommending NLU when asking to play certified loverboy, seems like he's still upset by his current perception when he's the cause of it

So it's that inconceivable that he could have a case, huh?

These record labels are straight up, honest folks and would never do nothing shady, nope, no sir.

Why was J Cole talking about bots in his song about the beef? Long before any of this shyt even came out.

Why did Cole drop that diss song and apologized before Kendrick replied to Drake if you wanna play the why game.

I'm not saying it's nothing shady, I'm saying he's conflating his perception in the public with UMG secretly making a diss song into a hit record. His accusations in the petition is stuff he heard online. Just as he's asking them to produce the numbers, he in turn is going to have to provide proof to backup his claims. One of his accusations already got blown up

Why is Drake acting like Not Like Us came out of thin air? That man beat him at his own game and made a hit song out of a diss record. So did IMG secretly tell Kendrick to make a structured diss song and they'll handle the rest?

“Have you ever thought that ovo was working for me?”

“You must be a terrible person, everyone inside your team is whispering that you deserve it”

“Can’t tootsi slide out of this one, it’s just gon resurface”

“100 nikkas that you got on salary, and 20 of ‘em want you as a casualty”

“It’s time that you look around at whose around you
Before you figure you’re not alone ask what Mike would do”

It was UMG all along :ohhh: :mjpls::pachaha::troll:

Maybe that's his proof, he already had the numbers from when it benefited him

A lot of yall really don’t pay attention. It shows because the crux of this issue has been in play since for all the dawgs but I’m convinced the majority of this forum and the internet does not pay attention to lyrics, read about what’s going on in the industry, or pay attention to interviews. I mean Vince staples indicated what this was about since the beginning of the beef around March or April. Drake’s been telling you in his lyrics this was how it was all going to play out since last October when he dropped FATD and then released scary hours. The majority of yall dismissed Taylor Made when he’s feeding you the information. Hell he predicts all of what happened on red button yet people were like where is the red button? Seriously.

You can’t have an honest discussion with people when you don’t even listen to what he’s saying in the lyrics or even believe anything he’s saying. Not to mention, we gonna conveniently forget how all these podcasters were looking into his deal with UMG throughout the beef. The shake ups that has been happening with the labels. Kendrick and Drake going back and forth throughout the beef about contracts and publishing.

About the numbers it never made sense that Family Matters numbers were so low after it was Drake’s official response to Euphoria. There was clear suppression especially for the bigger artist. I always said if Drake is UMG’s biggest artist and they usually juice the system in his benefit why did they turn off his juice when he was getting his *ss kicked. In fact, you saw NLU get the juice that Drake’s song would normally get.

It was all there for everyone to see but it’s easier to manipulate the audience to one narrative. Now you see the same ones that teamed up against him slowly backsliding like it never happened. Because the damage is done. Hurt the brand, hurt renegotiation talks. Don’t sell as much, hurts renegotiation talks. Why do you think all of these blogs and pages have been posting streaming numbers at an increased frequency for both Kendrick and Drake all year. Sure they would focus on 1st week streams, but now they focus on it damn never everyday.

I’m both a Kendrick and Drake fan and I enjoyed the beef immensely. I think all the songs together make a great body of work but if we are going to address these things, we can’t just be reductive on some oh he’s mad because he loss. It was always bigger than just rap.
