Mr.X Posted January 16 Posted January 16 17 hours ago, bad guy said: It's been a known thing for awhile that Drake's entourage invites teen girls in Toronto back to his home for him. Not to mention the extremely inappropriate behavior he's had towards teen girls like fondling one on stage, texting Millie Bobby Brown at 15 about boys, texting Billie Eilish at 17, hanging out with Kylie Jenner at 16, etc. People have talked about his creepy behavior for years, Kendrick was just bold enough to say it out loud OT: LOSER then Kendrick should have gone to the ******* police rather than rake in millions out of people's misery to score some ******* points. Disgusting overall. 4

You can tell he wants to but he i don't think it goes that far. Also big difference from randomly attacking a Pop singer on a song and 2 rappers agreeing to battle on wax. Going to the authorities because you lost a verbal exchange is ridiculous.
ATRL Moderator Samson Posted January 16 ATRL Moderator Posted January 16 He wants to sue Kendrick sooo bad but he know that he can't do that without throwing away any remaining bits of his "cred", so he has to make a matryoshka doll of a lawsuit by throwing in botting accusations alongside the claims of defamation Somehow at the same time, I can believe and I can't believe that he's going through with this. Diss tracks have always been a mixture of battle rapping and humiliation. You are expected to take (to some extent) "creative liberties" when dissing someone. That's why "Ether" is still considered to be one of the best disses ever even though a solid amount of the bars are either false or unprovable. The point was that it humiliated and shocked Jay and his crew and made any possible response look like a bad idea (hence Jay releasing "Supa Ugly" and then apologizing on Hot 97 within literally 24 hours). With this in mind, to me, this does not just feel like a lawsuit against UMG over Kendrick's diss. This feels like a lawsuit against the entire genre. The diss track is an essential organ to hip-hop and rapping. The only thing Drake could do that's lamer than this would be, as I said, to sue Kendrick himself. I'm kind of getting second-hand embarrassment because all Drake needed to do was go lowkey for the rest of 2024 and pop out with a melodic R&B-rap album this summer or fall and people would have probably been over it. It really did not need to go here 1 2

Disgusting overall. That's the victims' rights to sue Drake *if* they choose to do so, not Kendrick's. You completely don't get it and only use this to be a contrarian hater on Kendrick.
Nefertiti0 Posted March 17 Posted March 17 (edited) Universal Music Group has filed a scathing motion to dismiss Drake's New York lawsuit against them for promoting Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" Drake "lost a rap battle that he provoked and in which he willingly participated. Instead of accepting the loss like the unbothered rap artist he often claims to be, he has sued his own record label in a misguided attempt to salve his wounds. The filing notes that Drake himself signed a public petition less than three years ago criticizing "the trend of prosecutors using artists' creative expression against them" by interpreting rap lyrics as fact.

He should've never released First Person Shooter and especially not Push Ups… You asked for this Drizzy.
C_Colstead Posted March 17 Posted March 17 (edited) Drake acting like a Karen because UMG promoted Kendrick's music and it did/does great numbers on Spotify - out of Kendrick and Drake, only one of them had a strong enough relationship with Spotify to ensure they were the face of literally every playlist a few years back when their album was released. And it wasn't Kendrick. Hope UMG win! Edited March 17 by C_Colstead
Pavement Princess Posted March 17 Posted March 17 He did but he also has been lambasted as a pdfile without any semblance of proof. I think he has grounds for slander. Who what or why is held accountable that I have no clue of.
