Drake and UMG will face each other in court for โ€˜Not Like Usโ€™ lawsuit

Kendrick Lamarโ€™s diss track, Not Like Us, which refers to Drake as โ€œcertified pedophileโ€ has taken the musicians to court.

Drakeโ€™s legal defense is planning for a long trial against Universal Music Group according to the latest update filed on Wednesday, April 9th.

The Canadian rapperโ€™s legal team stated that “settlement discussions have not taken placeโ€ in documents obtained by People Magazine.

According to the documents, the trial is estimated to last for at least three weeks, in New York.

This comes after Lamarโ€™s Grammy-winning song, Not Like Us, garnered a lot of attention after he released it in May 2024.

The Luther hitmaker also performed the track in front of a crowd of 127.7 million people in Super Bowl 2025 in February.

While the word โ€œpedophileโ€ was censored in the performance, Lamar smiled at the camera as he said, โ€œSay, Drake, I hear you like โ€˜em young.โ€

This comes after Drakeโ€™s legal team hit back at UMGโ€™s response that Lamarโ€™s lyrics were only his opinion, saying, โ€œUMG completely ignores the Complaintโ€™s allegations that millions of people, all over the world, did understand [the song] as a factual assertion that [Drake] is a pedophile.โ€

However, UMG claimed that the God’s Plan“lost a rap battle that he provoked” and “sued his own record label in a misguided attempt to salve his wounds.”
