All this to get this motion rejected. šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£

Any of you nikkaz have $5k laying around put them up. I bet $5k this motion gets rejected and the judge continues with the lawsuit.

Seem like this shyt was written by reddit nikka.
Motions don’t get ā€œrejectedā€ goofy. I didn’t even realize they included all those exhibits. But Drake opened the door to that by referencing the diss lyrics. He will likely file an opposition saying that it all constitutes unlawful extrinsic evidence that is not ripe for this stage. But I don’t think he will win. I’d have to review the complaint but he might have made so many references to where they’re allowed to do this. I don’t really litigate defamation cases but they probably argued that since it’s your ā€œrepā€ you’re arguing about we can include all this outside information to show you that your rep was what it was. The same goes for the rap lyrics.

Yall dont find this shyt unprofessional as hell though?

I mean this is WILD to see in a formal document.
This plays into UMG’s defense that Kendrick wasn't fabricating new accusations but rather commenting on existing public discussions and controversies that had already been circulating. That argument helps push back against any defamation claims by framing the lyric as a reflection of widely known allegations rather than a new assertion of fact.

Everyone is focused on the lyrics argument but I thought the main argument in his lawsuit was that they had a duty to protect his brand as the label and that they tried to devalue his brand for the purposes of contract renegotiations? I'm not reading 31 pages but did they address that part?

This.
Kendrick was smart as fukk commenting on what was already publicly available (or what drake himself said and admitted) :dead:

So, basically, Drake lied about Kendrick's family, but Kendrick only commented on what Drake himself brought to the table :pachaha::wow:
