AceShowbiz - In November, Kendrick Lamar's nemesis Drake filed a lawsuit against Universal Music Group and Spotify over "Not Like Us", which K.Dot dropped in May to diss Drizzy. The Canadian star accused UMG and Spotify of wrongdoing during his feud against the "Like That" rapper.
Drake alleged that UMG engaged in a "scheme" to manipulate the success of "Not Like Us". The "Hotline Bling" hitmaker's petition claimed that UMG used bots, payola and other deceptive practices to boost the song's streaming numbers on platforms like Spotify. In the wake of the lawsuit, UMG denied the allegations, calling them "offensive."
