Drake Demands to See Kendrick Lamar's Contract


This week Universal Music Group filed to dismiss Canadian rapper Drake's defamation of character lawsuit accusing the rapper of filing in retaliation for losing a rap battle he started with Kendrick Lamar [click here if you missed that].  

Meanwhile Drake is pressing forward demanding to see Kendrick's UMG recording contract...

From Variety
In the latest pushback from Universal Music Group in Drake’s defamation lawsuit against the company over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” diss track, UMG has asked a federal judge to stop all discovery in the case, which includes demands for “all contracts” between Lamar and UMG, as well as compensation and incentives — i.e. salary and bonuses — for Interscope CEO John Janick and other executives.
“Drake’s first set of discovery requests consist of 18 items that would require costly collection and review of large swaths of hard-copy and electronic data sets, contracts and agreements, and communications,” the document states, causing “undue burden” on the company.
It states that Drake’s lawyers have requested “all contracts between UMG and Kendrick Lamar, documents showing ‘the executive compensation structure and annual incentive plans for Interscope Chief Executive Officer John Janick for the past five years,’” it continues, quoting Drake’s lawyers documents, “and ‘Interscope’s 2024 executive incentive metrics, targets, projections, and performance used to determine annual incentive compensation for Interscope’s executives and officers … for the past five years.’”

Damn Drake give it up and let it go. He will never be able to move forward if he doesn't face his defeat and grow some balls and move on.

There is a snitch at UMG. I wish Drake would stop and just put out a Masterpiece. I am tired of NLU. Drake should man up and sue Dot.
