Drake withdraws legal petition against Spotify and Universal Music Group after accusing them of payola and bots.

The pop star filed legal actions against his record label and the streaming giant alleging that they made us listen to “Not Like Us” more than we otherwise would.

Drake's legal team said Universal Music Group used its resources to "elevate a dangerous and inflammatory message that was designed to assassinate Drake’s character."

Spotify and UMG rejected Drake’s claims that they had illegally conspired to boost Kendrick Lamar’s diss track

Drake is calling off the legal dogs in pursuit of legal action against Universal Music Group and Spotify over allegedly amplifying Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” streams.

Two months earlier, Drake filed petitions in New York and Texas over his claim UMG schemed to "artificially inflate" Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us."

Drake is playing chess, not checkers. On Wednesday (Jan. 15), less than 24 hours after dismissing his first of two legal petitions against Universal Music Group, the More Life creator filed a defamation suit in federal court over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us.

Drake sued his longtime label on Wednesday, accusing Universal Music Group of defamation for promoting Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us," saying the song's false accusation that the Canadian rapper is a pedophile has put him and his family in danger.
