Just a few days after the release of the album, Lamar’s current rival, Drake, filed multiple lawsuits against Universal Music Group regarding the diss track, “Not Like Us.” He’s alleging that the label, along with Spotify, artificially boosted the success of the song. “UMG did not rely on chance, or even ordinary business practices,” lawyers for Drake wrote. “It instead launched a campaign to manipulate and saturate the streaming services and airwaves.” Additionally, he complains that UMG didn’t block its release, despite knowing Lamar makes several unfounded allegations in the lyrics. It’s unclear whether the lawsuits will affect Lamar’s ability to perform the song at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
