What is so crazy about this is that I know Drake’s lawyer. I couldn’t believe it when I saw his name attached to this case. Michael Gotlieb is one of the best litigators in the nation. He does important work, such as representing the election workers in Georgia Giuliani smeared and national security. This case is beneath him and Wilkie’s crisis team, so they must really believe in Drake and his cause to take this on. Their crisis team deals with very large and complex cases for clients, usually corporations, who are facing total destruction because they are facing fights on multiple fronts in multiple jurisdictions, some of them in different stages of litigation. I know people say that anyone will take a case if offered enough money but, if that were true, Drake doesn’t have it.
There is something fishy going on here. This lawsuit looks like it was written by a 1L student who failed Civil Procedure, Contracts, and Torts. Everything about this is incorrect. The lawsuit is one big unprofessionally written motion to dismiss and an invitation to an anti-SLAPP suit. It’s as if they laid landmines for themselves to blow up their case so that it never makes it to trial. Not only that, it appears that they are trying to make Drake look bad with the specious claims of antisemitism to targeting only black streamers. This has to have been done on purpose; perhaps with the intention of damaging Drake’s relationship with UMG so badly that they no longer want to deal with him. Whatever the reason, I’m never letting him live this down.
Why are you not letting him live this down? What did he do wrong by suing UMG? Also, if you have such admiration for the lawyer why question his reasonings of why he wrote that document? You are not a professional and don't have any expertise on the matter so why would you think your opinion on the document is valid over this lawyer. Makes no sense
@@vexthegreat9167 🎯🎯 an anti SLAPP is something that someone I watch explain, recently. They are going through a defamation trial, atm...but they are the ones suing though. Another RUclipsr made some unverified (read, false) accusations about them and then repeatedly doubled down on those accusations after receiving a cease & desist. The claimant lost out on job opportunities and other hardships from those remarks. It's all kind of other stuff to that story, but my thoughts immediately went there with this UMG thing. Like, wouldn't they be able to do that and place Drake in an inconvenienced limbo? Because the RUclipsr being sued, used that very thing to try and wait out the person that they defamed in the first place. It didn't hold and then original suit was able to continue. But it was costly amd time consuming for the person who was defamed to have to navigate and deal with.
@@jamierobinson8116 the person you're replying to might also be a lawyer
@@jamierobinson8116 to answer your questions,
he wont let him live this down because it's an objectively silly case to take as a renowned lawyer known to work on important national issues, now working on a case for a butthurt artist who lost a rap battle.
What drake is doing wrong by suing UMG is destroying his reputation, destroying his public image, and destroying his relationship with UMG. This is a frivolous and hypocritical lawsuit that really shouldn't be tried in the same court as sex predators and financial thieves and deviants, it really shouldn't be tried at all because an artist deserves the freedom of expression through their art and music. Drake said terrible lies about Kendrick as well, Drake started the beef, and Drake begged Kendrick to drop and to talk about him liking kids.
You answered your own question within the third question: He has so much admiration for the lawyer, because of which, he is questioning the reasoning for the UMG lawsuit because he's clearly familiar enough with his work to know when something is off. As he mentioned in the second paragraph, "This lawsuit looks like it was written by a 1L student who failed Civil Procedure, Contracts, and Torts" which honestly, even I, not a lawyer or anything close to one, can agree with because when I first read it, it seemed like Drake himself wrote it, not some professional lawyer. It sounded so whiny and cringe.
Finally, this person is using his critical thinking skills. Each one of us could have googled the lawyers and made these connections, but this person did it for us. We KNOW in the past that labels have sent lawyers to an artist actually help PLACE BLAME on that same artist. for example, to get diddy out of trouble way back when, the label sent lawyers to one of the other people who was there the night of a shooting, and the lawyers purposely did a terrible job defending him, and that guy got in trouble and jailtime instead of diddy. There is reason to think critically here because labels can be powerful and 10 steps ahead, as we have evidence of that in the past. basically just speculating that something weird might be going on.
The simple answer could be that he wants to build up his "portfolio" with a high profile celeb case. celeb lawyers eat good. the non simple answer could go much deeper and potentially enter the realm of conspiracy
who guessed that hip hop journalists were gonna have to read this many legal documents in 2025 💀
"Put the wrong label on me, ima get him dropped" hits different now💀
Wow 😳🔥
Facts 😂😂😂😂
Damn - I thought he said 'put the whole label on me' as in OVO 😅
@LC-oi3vw yea thats wat he said.

The “tomato” at 1:09 as an anti round-of-applause is too good😂
Its gotten a pretty good work out so far since hes introduced it!!😂😂

@@TheCompanyMan well said brother
I feel like the whole case he's bringing is a complete waste of time but I'm still fascinated at how far Drake is willing and capable of failing.

Drake thinks he's out here doing everyone a solid by stomping on snakes and everyone watching is saying nah, those are are rakes....
The weird thing about this is that his fans think he has UMG running scared💀💀💀
well they are dumb tbf.
They basically laughed in his face at his frivolous lawsuit. What do they have to be afraid of? But OVhoes are going to OVhoe, I guess 🤷♂️🤦♂️
UMG, the company tht has been around for ages. These OVHoes don't think they was prepared for a artist to do shenanigans like Drake 😂 if Sony was able to stop Michael Jackson, yal think Drake gon outsmart them UMG? 😂 them niggas the Illuminati of music. Good luck bud lol

I'm a paralegal and you explained this better than I could, although I never took any corporate law classes and the only defamation stuff I learned was in tort and mostly focused on non public figures. Great breakdown for a lay audience tho.

With regards to the commercial communications exception, I believe the speaker would be UMG because they are the ones publishing the material. UMG is saying, that exception does not apply to us because the exception has been determined by other courts to only include speech that is ABOUT the product they are selling. In other words if UMG had board meeting about their strategies for making sales, that would be subject to the exception. But their "speech" of publishing songs is protected
Thank you! Pinning this.
Yes, exactly. If UMG had issued promotional material about Not Like Us that was like "check out the song that exposes Drake as a pdf", and drake sued them for *that statement* rather than the song, they couldn't use this law to say "it's our free speech", because the statement here is about their goods, so the commercial exception to the law would apply, making them a valid target for a defamation claim.
@@ADVBCAT Which doesn't make sense because Kendrick, without warning, dropped Not Like Us with no promotional material or marketing at all. And even in the case of "Meet the Grahams, considering it dropped literally 30 minutes after "Family Matters", there would have been no time to promote or market the song.
DRAKE on the other hand, literally promoted "Family Matters" by telling streamers to "stay on stream", marketed the "red button" on instagram, and shot a whole fucking music video for it. If anything, the commercial speech exception applies more to Drake. Which when you think about it is hilariously hypocritical and near sighted.
I think that UMG is foreshadowing their defense for the federal lawsuit. The remaining pre-action petition is moot, since Lawbry sued. UMG is letting Lawbry know that they are going to fight back in the lawsuit. They said "here, have a taste". 😂😂😂
Also the logic for the 3rd argument they make works both ways. Why does he need the petition in Texas to find the evidence if he already thinks he has enough evidence to sue in New York? And how can he prove the lawsuit in New York if he's still trying to figure out a way to find proof by using a different state's laws and courts? Their existences kinda cancel each other out, which is certainly an unique kind of legal fail
Even UMG don’t count his Heart Part 6🤣🤣🤣🤣
UMG fighting back against Aubrey’s delusion and foolishness? Even Stevie Wonder saw this coming.
😂😂😂😂😂
Why's his name even Aubrey? Isn't that a girls name? 🤔
@@active__nihilist1 it's one of those formerly unisex names that are now mostly for girls. Ashley, Leslie, Aubrey, Kelsey

The case is probably going to be dismissed.
At which point is Drake legally certified as a pedophile?
It’s not.
@@Akatsuki250 It might
I don’t think so. Even if it’s frivolous I think Drake filed it in Texas coz of his connections there with J Prince and they will make sure the lawsuit go through even if it’s gonna flop later.
@@Akatsuki250how do you know? Are you the judge presiding over the case?🤔
"Super MC and a Celebrity." 9 second applause for TCM. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 UMG not even recognizing The Heart Part 6 is hilarious.😂
Maybe they gave Drake grace by omitting The Heart Pt 6. He did make himself look like a chomo with the “I never looked twice at no teenager” and “I’m way too famous for the shit you suggested” lines.
“Bexar” county is actually pronounced as “Bear”.

Kendrick should just let the instrumental of not like us play and let the crowd sing it
@@trillfate4479 !!!
I'm beginning to think that 50 Cent is as dumb as Drake.
He's as Petty....,
He is
I always saw him as more of a troll who fucks around and sometimes says funny things than a rapper to be honest. More so a shit flinger than a valid person to listen to. Sometimes he hits and sometimes he fumbles horribly. In this case it was the latter
I've known he's just as dumb as Drake since 2000 (long before we ever heard of a Drake).
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Only a matter of time before the UMG diss tracks filmed through a window 9 blocks away with a VHS camera start leaking
🤣🤣🤣
right right right
I want it to go to court think of the info that would come out of this case
This case is a waste of time for everyone involved. Give it up Drake smh
How you know its a waste of time?
Real. If he should be suing anyone, at all, it should be Kendrick, the individual, since he wrote the goddamn song. It's another (non legal) discussion as why Drake shouldn't sue K-Dot either, when it comes to UMG, that's that.
@@gabrielmalta1962 why should he be suing Kendrick? He has no issue with Kendrick. He has an issue with UMG that's allowing defamation. Their is a difference. He would sue Kendrick if he actually had an issue with Kendrick making the song and wanted to take legal action.
@@jamierobinson8116 Because... You know, Kendrick was the one who called him a pedophile, a sex trafficker, a deadbeat father, said he deserved to die, that his home would be raided by police.
UMG just did their job as the record company, they'd publish a love song the same way. If anyone defamed anyone else, it'd be Kendrick and Drake making accusations at each other.
@@jamierobinson8116 But then again, as I said, suing K-Dot would have even more severe repercussions inside the culture, so I wouldn't go that way either, in Drake's shoes
He doesn’t have grounds to stand on tbh. I’m not a lawyer and I can punch holes through it 😂😂😂
How is Drake going to prove loss of wages? Didn’t he have yet another big year as far as streaming goes?
Gambling…emotional distress…good lawyers will create a strong narrative there
@@TheSmokeWatcherhe has a gambling company lol
@@Eazyahk he’s bound to a gambling company. Major difference. He got major gambling debts too
@@Eazyahk”has a gambling company” - he has a sponsorship deal with them

Hello! I’m a Texas lawyer. I think this Texas suit is probably going away relatively soon, but I’m happy to answer any future questions. 👍🏻
Somebody tell Mal and 50 that Drake also lost this case when they ask “what did he lose?” That list has stacked up pretty high. 💯💯👍🏾👍🏾
I can only think, Kendrick made moves so methodically that he knew what he was legally capable of doing.
Not a lawyer but my reading is that UMG reasons that them bringing the song to market doesn’t qualify as commercial speech. Commercial speech would be them publishing posters and ads/commercials saying “Stream KDot’s NLU, his epic takedown of Drake, the PDF! Distributed by UMG under license from pgLang.”
Exactly. They have a legal duty to facilitate/distribute Kendrick’s music since they’re in contact with him, Simple as that. Drake underestimated Kendrick’s fan base and impact on the culture, now he wanna claim bots and payola. Nah. The culture chose Kung Fu Kenny
One second applause for the shirt

How is it a bad thing?
@ what’s the reason ?
@@Povizle what do you mean? Why is a tomato equal a lawsuit?

it’ll probably happen before the Super Bowl.
How do you know this are you a lawyer?
Yoooo, during the Eagles vs Commanders game, they've been advertising Kendrick heavy..... they just played 1 ad with the Not Like Us instrumental!
ITS ALL HAPPENING
Shade!!😂😂😂 Emcee & celebrity 😂😂😂😂
Will Drake drop an album lying about why he tried to sue? 😂😂😂
lawbrey has been out of music for a couple months now, he's a full time gambling addict
Maybe he was trying to springboard that album with the Fighting Irish freestyle
Watching this on my lunch break
I have to admit the tomato adlib is pretty fire
TOMATO.🍅. 😂
Renting is when the record company pays an artist an amount agreed to profit. If said artist doesn't meet that profit, the artist owes money to the company. Kendrick paid his rent.
This is unreal. Yo, Drake is done done. Over cooked. Get him out of here we ordering out.
Why is he done?
@jamierobinson8116 we went from breaking down lyrics of diss tracks to breaking down court documents over nothing more than hurt feelings. That's how his done.
1) Drake needs a to stop bluffing with UMG’s lawyers before they make it their business to prove that he “like ‘em young.” Anybody who subscribes to Legal Eagle knows that the TRUTH is all the defense you need against defamation👀
2) Also, who exactly is on this legal team, Alina Habba⁉️
Ha! Shade! 😂
Ah I have been so curious about what is happening in Texas after the NY withdrawals. I'm honestly excited to see/hear what Drake does after all of this legal drama ends.. how he'll talk/rap about it, if his attitude with change at all .. Maybe he should embrace the "Lawbrey" moniker and do a concept album or something, lol.
I'm really curious about that too, tbh. The spin is gonna be crazy. "I was hiding the world from my kid" will be like a candle to the sun.
@@TheCompanyManI just wonder if it’ll FINALLY sink in that he needs to take a six-month marketing rebrand break -and shut up long enough for it to work. Sweet Christmas and a crucifix…🍅
@@CED.Dweller I wonder if he can at this point. I feel like he has a lot of stake obligations.
There’s no way Drake can come back from this. Maybe he “leaks” music this year but UMG definitely dropping him and without their push and the results of this battle, lawbrey isn’t doing the numbers he’s used to.
How not? He can sign to Sony or Warner both are powerhouse labels like UMG
@ you really think the other two would sign him after suing UMG for doing nothing wrong (as far as it seems)? Even if they signed him he’s not getting that bag he wants. And honestly at this point in his career he should be independent anyways.
@Grt1n the other labels don't care. Drake is the biggest cash earner so they'd be delighted to have them on their roster. You're somehow under the impression that UMG is not guilty and Drake is lying. Don't trust anyone especially billion dollar white corporations who been ripping off artists for decades.
Drake could be disrespectful to everyone but when Kendrick comes calling he wants to cry foul.. I don't think he thought this one out. Drake has too many yes men in his corner
TCPA is an anti slapp rule which protects those exercising their free speech rights. Corporations have rights. Free speech rights
This man is upgrading his soundboard every few weeks did yall clock this?!! 😂
"drake is not a name you'll see on no sex offender list."
Law suit list... Bet 😂😂😂😂😂
🤦🏽All jokes aside Lauwbrey Graham/Flake bouta get that Sean Combs/Fluffy treatment🤷🏽

The petition will be dismissed since Drake is indeed violating two parties freedom of speech: UMG and Kendrick. And exactly as I’ve been saying from the beginning: if Drake cared about getting out of his contract or cared about the little guy, the only thing that matters is the bot usage and payola and if he has proof, bring it to the table now. Deformation would not have been a part of his claims at all, even how bots were concerned. All he needed to say was “yo, UMG used bots to push NLU and here’s the proof”. That’s it.
Using these arguments both the petition and the lawsuit will get dropped. The only thing to change that is Drake providing evidence, and as I’ve been calling for a lick of evidence since this started, UMG is also saying Drake has no evidence. If he does then they’re willing to go forward with it. But because they know he doesn’t, they’re saying that Drake is wasting everyone’s time and money and the courts time and resources.
He only cares about NLU not being at the super bowl. That’s what all this is about. It all boils down to the super bowl
Thx for the update
I dont think Drake cares if he wins. He wants NLU to go away. I think he'll do whatever it takes to stop this song. Drake is also trying to take attention from the Super Bowl, Grand National Tour, etc.
nice to have this content because, although a little interested I can’t be bothered to look it up and read it 😆

@@ariensmith1606all Smiths have a slick ahh mouth/way of thinking in a verbal sparring match💯❤
Oh so, it wasn't the TCPA that Drake and his legal team were referencing, it was the TVA. They are suggesting that variants were used to boost "Not Like Us" streams (Us != Variants; thus "Not Like Us"), which caused the Sacred Timeline to split into the newly FORMed branches. This would explain errors in the deFAMation petition like, Kendrick being from Oakland. Instead it was motion to begin the deFORMation of the branches by pruning the streams and streamers. I thought they were tripping, but it all makes sense now.
Looking forward to you responding to this Akademiks news.
We all know damn well that Kendrick is playing 'Not Like Us' at the super bowl. The NFL could file almost the exact same motion stating how they are simply playing a song that the public at large has deemed worthy of being "needed", and that they themselves aren't saying/singing any words. Not only that, but haven't both the NFL and the NBA played the song over live broadcasts? I believe we're way past them being implicated in any sort of way
I believe that this MTD will be denied as the court prefers resolution on the merits and there appears to be claims that continue to have some level of merit.
So I’ve been wanting to make a RUclips channel for five years and I finally have decided that I’m starting it. Right now I’m working on the script and the title of it is “why Kendrick Lamar will win the defamation lawsuit“ and then I saw this upload and I thought to myself, oh no! Thankfully, none of the argumentation in this document at all touches on the argumentation that’s gonna be in my video, whew! 🙌🙌💪💪

Drake really dont see that people are still trying to protect him from himself. If this goes to trial, Drake better pray to whomever he prays to, that UMG doesn't spill all the dirt on him. In which I think will happen. Then he will be in cell block one along with his boy Ak...
Who has more dirt UMG or Drake? Use your head
The record company ALWAYS has more dirt.
@@kimbriggs not necessarily true. UMG existed long before Drake and have much more to lose. If Drake can prove they used payola which is illegal that'll be a problem for them. Don't believe Justin he's just bias for Kendrick and a Drake hater
4:38 honestly i feel like that is simultaneously a hilarious piece of legal shade, and weirdly accurate. like it really did culminate in the public eye with not like us, nobody cares about the heart, even all but his weirdest fans don't really talk it up, not like us was the finishing blow, and then the heart part 6 was the part in the process of death/decay where the body shits itself. you could argue that it only truly ended with that song, but i feel like not like us really was the culmination, and that is fully a part of why drake is doing this whiny child tantrum now.
A motion to dismiss is pretty normal. Any defense would usually start with it. Actually getting a dismissal is almost impossible.
hah bexar county😅 oddly enough you could pretty much just take the X out and read the English word left as it legit sounds exactly like Bear when pronounced as intended🤣🤣
20:35 Right, they are not ABOUT UMG's goods or services cause they ARE UMG's goods or services
