💨 Abstract

A federal judge is considering a defamation lawsuit filed by Drake against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar's diss track "Not Like Us." Drake claims the song's lyrics, which impugn his authenticity and make implications about his personal life, are defamatory and have led to real-world threats. Universal argues the lyrics are part of a long tradition of rap beefing and should not be taken literally.
