Drake's recent amended defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group has expanded to include Kendrick Lamar's performance of "Not Like Us" during the Super Bowl, alleging character assassination. Drake claims the track's allegations, specifically referencing pedophilia, were made public to an audience of over 133 million, which included children. Although Lamar removed the defamatory term during his performance, the lawsuit argues this highlights its damaging nature. Universal Music denies the claims, suggesting Drake's legal team is misleading him, while Drake pursues accountability for what he labels as misconduct by the label.
The Recording was performed during the 2025 Super Bowl and broadcast to the largest audience for a Super Bowl halftime show ever, over 133 million people, including millions of children.
Although Lamar removed the word 'pedophile,' the suit argues that the omission showed that 'nearly everyone understands that it is defamatory,' indicating the serious nature of the allegations.
Drake's amended complaint makes an already strong case stronger; he will expose the evidence of UMG's misconduct, and UMG will be held accountable.
Universal Music denies Drake's allegations, claiming they have had a successful 16-year relationship and arguing that he is being misled by his lawyers.
