Professional by day, Drake fan by night ⚖️
OVODocket Opinion: Why is UMG Recordings hesitant to provide Drake’s legal team with the unredacted version of Kendrick Lamar’s recording contract? Two things.
1. We believe it’s because Interscope Records was irresponsible enough to place certain stipulations in Kendrick Lamar’s contract that not only incentivized him to engage in the rap battle with Drake but would also reward him following the rap battle.
2. We believe Kendrick Lamar’s contract contains language that proves Drake’s legal team’s allegation that UMG has the authority to alter/edit/remove Kendrick Lamar’s music and related works. Thereby, UMG was fully capable of stopping the defamatory statements in “Not Like Us” from being published and promoted, which they failed to do.
Per legal filings, an additional contract agreement between Interscope Records and Kendrick Lamar was executed on April 27 2024.
@CPenIV They’re over there scrambling to find ways to save $300M but folks were on this app calling Drake crazy for alleging UMG boosted “Not Like Us” to devalue him ahead of his contract renegotiations.
Reminder that all this apparently started because UMG Recordings couldn’t afford to pay Drake the money he rightfully earned. Instead of letting Drake explore his options elsewhere, they opted to promote a defamatory song in an effort to lower his market value.
📣 Update
Oral argument has been set for December 4, 2026, in Drake’s appeal of the dismissal of his lawsuit against UMG Recordings.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit will hear argument from Drake’s attorneys seeking to reverse the dismissal and from UMG’s attorneys seeking to affirm it.
@ComeWithFacts Take a look at the website for Tamir Poleg’s business, The Real Brokerage. Then take a closer look at the Chief Legal Officer. Their work history, especially prior law firms, is interesting. It could mean nothing though, we could all just be manic.

@radiance345@coolmike00@LorenLorosa Apparently her sister is a professional dancer that went on tour with Drake, a few years back. You would think Loren Lorosa would be less hateful towards someone that has positively contributed to her family.
It’s funny how your yellow journalism couldn’t keep you employed at Rolling Stone. You were nothing but a disgruntled and hateful stan passing off a journalist. In the end, it didn’t benefit you at all and you’re still struggling to recover, 8 months later. What’s The Dirt did what you bozos in media fail to do which is research and ask questions.
@apox6ix@Whats_the_dirt “Nobody can authenticate the documents”
Uh actually ANYONE can authenticate the documents. They’re publicly available. Which is why we share the documents so the public can read them, authenticate it themselves and draw their own conclusions.
Hip-hop media’s focus is on the 20 v 1 to distract you from What’s The Dirt’s extensive documentary about the questionable connections in the wave of lawsuits filed against Stake and Drake. We’re still waiting for Loren Lorosa to address the lawsuit’s latest update and Charlamagne to address the AI website Inverse Wire.
@radiance345@kbotkilla@blassicliberal@AkademiksTV All we can go off of is publicly available information and their own actions/words. The sudden silence is interesting when in June and July, he was running his big fat mouth like a leaky faucet.
Before yesterday, Roc Nation affiliate Charlamagne seemed to be the only public person who knew of this website’s existence. Just like Charlamagne was the only public person who knew of “investigations” related to Stake, Drake, Adin Ross and George Nguyen. There is no entry in any of these publicly available dockets for these bogus Stake lawsuits that mentions investigations. So the question is, how does Charlamagne know all of this information if he’s not connected in some way to the people who filed these lawsuits and created this AI website? Seems like Charlamagne is in close communication with the people doing this.
@blassicliberal Apparently online casinos are only a “questionable endeavor” when people you don’t like have dealings with them? But when a collaborator of an organization you sit on the board for has involvement in online casinos that’s perfectly okay? Do we have that right Ebro?
Please ask Ebro Darden if it’s a “questionable endeavor” for him to serve on the board of directors for one of the criminal justice reform nonprofits that collabs with Roc Nation’s Reform Alliance. Also ask Ebro if this is why his critique of online casinos is aimed solely at Drake although the same organizations Ebro collabs with also have involvement in the online casino business. We would really like to know.
