"Drake’s attorneys claim that UMG carried out its “scheme” in a variety of ways, including by charging Spotify vastly reduced licensing rates in exchange for the streamer recommending the song to users who had searched for “unrelated songs and artists.” They also claim UMG paid influencers to boost the song on social media and also hired armies of bots to fraudulently spike the numbers.

“UMG … conspired with and paid currently unknown parties to use ‘bots’ to artificially inflate the spread of ‘Not Like Us’ and deceive consumers into believing the song was more popular than it was in reality,” Drake’s lawyers write."

:patrice: I DONT THINK
HE WOULD BE GOING UP
AGAINST A CONGLOMERATE LIKE THIS
IF HE DIDN'T HAVE PROOF.

:devil:
:evil:


He let another man piss on him in front of witnesses

He wore blackface and allowed himself to be photographed doing so

He texted a 14 year old girl that he missed her and couldn’t wait to see her again and publicly bragged about it.

He went up against Pusha with nothing more than piss and vinegar and got spanked.

Drake has a HISTORY of making terrible career moves. This is just another example.

HES OBVIOUSLY GOING
TO HAVE TO PRESENT EVIDENCE IN COURT

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.
