Drake claimed the music company "launched a campaign to create a viral hit out of a rap track” that was “intended to convey the false factual allegation that Drake is a criminal pedophile"

Drake’s ongoing legal battle with his label, Universal Music Group, has escalated. The artist filed a lawsuit in federal court today, accusing UMG of harming his reputation and endangering him for profit.

After threatening legal action two months ago, Drake officially sued his record label, Universal Music Group, over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” on Wednesday.
