Do you realize the nuances of a civil rico?

I dont know why you’re attacking my intelligence like this. The label does not want Drake to re-up another mega deal.
Fine.

Simply put,

They will not be able to prove shyt that would not expose that they have done the same thing for Drake during his time as the top artist in the world.

This is all bullshyt. This is all weak.

I ran to the mods? :laff: now you just making up shyt. Sad..the mod that banned me is a kbot stan that I sonned..police shyt. The irony :mjlol:

Lets not detract from the fact that you are broke bum who makes 20 something an hr on a graveyard shift.

Instead of mentioning me begging for attentio, maybe you should find a way to make real money and you wont have to work when people are sleeping
I think dikkriding someone that doesn’t know you is pretty embarrassing if I’m being real

Smh people can’t see the forest from the trees. It’s pretty simple. No artist gets to just put their songs on DSPs without approval. Which is why the question should have been on May 4th who from the label gave the green light to put out NLU. It’s not simply about it being a rap battle. Despite these guys being artist, they are a brand, they are a business. The fallout from damaging Drake’s brand has had the intended ripple effect as seen. Someone at the label or DSP had to have known what Kendrick was going to say on NLU and gave the approval. No matter what anyone says Drake is a money maker for multiple groups, so to allow a song that called him a pedo to be blasted around the whole world is telling. We all know FM a 7 minute song was not going to go viral and be played on the radio. NLU was made to be a hit and pushed as such despite the implications in the song. This never was just a rap battle. I can’t understand why people can’t wrap their head around this. I can’t even understand how most people don’t even realize how the masses have been galvanized to hate ‘Drake’ as an artist not the person, in 8 months. These blogs and podcasters all repeating the same talking points which get picked up and repeated by tik tokers. No one questions the bizarreness of all of this.
The same label gave the ok for Family Matters where he said the man beat his wife and the kid not his too. :comeon:

I think this was all a giant gamble by Drake, fitting of his vice :ohhh:
He thought he could antagonize the situation (Drop Drop Drop Drop) to his advantage during contract negotiation forcing UMG to see that he was the biggest thing out to empower his position just for him to go all-in and lose to someone playing a better hand, and now he's running around demanding everyone pull up their sleeves, because he used to pull the trick he's now assuming was pulled against him.

When all that's done now is expose that he was cheating the whole time. And in court, that assassinates your character because you can't even make the claim that you're honest now given past patterns.

Just... just a really bad play :heh:

Budden is right, Lil Wayne better not diss Kendrick, cuz he isn't 1/10 the rapper Kendrick is...it coudl be the total end of the entire young money crew if wayne crosses the line

Wonder if Nicki would be foolish enough to jump in since she would be the last somewhat relevant YMCMB artist out (and yes, Lyga the tranny chasing 90's cosplaying PDF-ile, ain't relevant).
