Drake Calls Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Defamatory In Updated UMG Lawsuit

Drake's lawyers say the halftime show aimed to "assassinate the character of another artist," but UMG calls the updated case the latest "absurd" move by the superstar.

Drake has filed an updated version of his defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” claiming the rival’s Super Bowl halftime show was intended to “assassinate the character of another artist.”

In an amended complaint filed late Wednesday, Drake’s attorneys say the Super Bowl show, watched by 133 million people and “million of children”, “revitalized the public’s attention” to lyrics calling Drake a “certified pedophile” – a diss that the Canadian superstar claims is false and defamatory.
