      Drake is suing Kendrick and a label (UMG) that he’s worked with is friends with a board member, and parties with his kid…

      Not because of all the accusations in the songs.

      But because he can’t believe the song was really that popular and he’s saying they pumped it’s numbers just to hurt Drake personally.

      Pretty sure the song went back in the top 20, maybe top 10.

      Despite Kendrick just dropped an entire album, but this made people pause that and go back to Not Like Us.

      This is about to be more embarrassing than Scott’s Tots.

      One alt-right rich sellout rapper dissed a different rapper so hard because the other one is part of some sort of supposed ring of alleged pedophiles he belongs to. Those pedophiles being “Not Like Us” has become a popular colloquialism.

      Now the pedo rapper is suing them for something along the lines of defamation.

      EDIT: Clear and concise use of language

          He’s also your typical predatory wannabe music mogul. He’ll reach out to naive up and coming artists and sign them to predatory deals knowing a ride to fame is too hard to pass up for many.

            How tf does that make any sense? Is every rapper automatically far right through association with Kanye? Kendrick and Ye aren’t even friends

              Kanye picked Kendricks side during the feud and they have A LOT of photos together for people who supposedly aren’t friends.

              If Kendrick doesn’t want to be associated with the antisemitic maga rapper Kanye West then a good time to speak up would have been many years ago. Like Kid Cudi did.

            You can’t be alt-right “by association”. If you don’t hold their views but don’t care enough to not be friends with them you’re just an asshole, not alt-right.

              Does he not hold their views? I’ve seen no evidence of it. Kanye is an extremist who wants to eradicate the jews, I think actively supporting him in public should come with a cost.
