I am just now learning about the second lawsuit. You cannot tell me this ain’t the definition of a bytch :laff:


But the filing also offers key new details about Drake’s grievances toward UMG, the label where he has spent his entire career. In it, he says UMG knew that Kendrick’s song “falsely” accused him of being a “certified pedophile” and “predator” but chose to release it anyway.



“UMG … could have refused to release or distribute the song or required the offending material to be edited and/or removed,” Drake’s lawyers write. “But UMG chose to do the opposite. UMG designed, financed and then executed a plan to turn ‘Not Like Us’ into a viral mega-hit with the intent of using the spectacle of harm to Drake and his businesses to drive consumer hysteria and, of course, massive revenues. That plan succeeded, likely beyond UMG’s wildest expectations.”

“Certified pedophile”. “Hey Drake I hear ya like em young” “ probably A-minor”

Pretty defamatory don’t ya think?
No, actually.

To be defamatory you have to PROVE that they knowingly LIED about something they knew for a fact to be a lie. This bar is very hard to clear since it basically means you have to have black and white proof like in texts or emails of Kendrick and or UMG being like "yeah I'm going to lie about Drake being a pedo" on some Stringer Bell criminal note taking shyt

Openly speculating or even asserting an opinion about someone based on their character or questionable behavior is not defamatory.

That Drake could have "expected the Epstein angle" or even tell Kendrick to talk about the young girls because he heard about it on the internet undercuts his own case for defamation, as it demonstrates speculation about Drake's questionable activities with youngins was already in the public sphere. Hell Drake name dropped Millie Bobby Brown in a song when Kendrick never mentioned her in any of his songs. So the speculation isn't made up out of thin air and it's certainly not something Drake or anyone else can prove Kendrick doesn't actually believe.

Seeing Drakes stan’s spiral is truly hilarious.

It done went from…

“He’s not bothered”

to

“He’s still the streaming GIANT”

to

“He’s richer than Kendrick and sold WAAAAY more”

to

“Well he did call him a pedo and you can’t do that”

to

“Well the song did make him less valuable to UMG”

to

“Well he did lose money so the defamation suit makes sense”

to

“Well who wouldn’t be upset by being called a pedo”

to

“Since when are yall pro-corporation?”

to

“Nah it’s really bigger than the beef. His life is on the line.”


LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Mini crash outs crashing out over Daddy Crash Out. I used to pray for days like this I swearrrrrrr. Glad we are all on one accord now and see how blatantly weird and petty this goof is.

If his tracks was getting inflated too you think he'd be stupid enough to file this lawsuit? :comeon:

You nikkas just be saying any old shyt man
He’s the same guy who thought it was smart to expose himself as a pedo on Taylor Made freestyle before Kendrick could :ld:

Is you nikkas slow or is you nikkas stupid? Him signing onto that petition for the cease fire in Gaza happened a whole year ago which started all the shyt you seeing now

You contrarian nikkas are the fukkin worse

Look man I realize your idol is going out sad but are YOU f*cking stupid?

Drake signed that Gaza sh*t the same month "For All The Dogs" came out. Which went on to....flop? Because he signed the Gaza thing, correct?

Hell f*cking no, it went on to sell like crazy and spawn multiple #1 singles.

Matter of fact, here you are a few months ago feeding into that dumb ass rumor that Drake co-owned UMG:

Nope he’s saying Drake has an ownership stake in the labels all them nikkas beefing with him are on.. So while metro with the we don’t trust you album and campaign Drake literally eating off that shyt lmaoo

But he was somehow simultaneously getting black balled because of Gaza?

This is what I was talking about earlier in the thread when I said you cats have zero f*cking shame. No kind of logic, or thought process. Just mindless stanning and goal post moving. How are you cats comfortable as grown men, behaving like this? I'm embarrassed for you.

Fred.
