All Your Questions About Drake's Legal Battle with UMG Answered
On Monday, the biggest rap beef in history entered a new (and very strange) phase. Drake started legal action against Universal Music Group (UMG) and Spotify, claiming they had conspired to “manipulate” Kendrick Lamar’s diss “Not Like Us” into its world-beating success. The methods, the document claims, include secret deals, bots, pay-to-play, and even intentional misguiding of Siri. (UMG, it should be noted, denies everything).
Then, the following day, a second filing, this time in Bexar County, Texas, became public. This one took aim additionally at iHeartRadio.
News of the filings (which are not lawsuits—more on that later) took over peoples’ timelines instantly. But there was some confusion as to what it all means. Now that the dust has settled a little, and the actual legal filings have been widely shared, here are our answers to your questions.
