Join Analytic Dreamz on Notorious Mass Effect for an in-depth analysis of the Drake v. UMG lawsuit dismissal! On October 9, 2025, Judge Jeannette A. Vargas dismissed Drake’s defamation case against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” ruling its lyrics as “nonactionable opinion” and hyperbolic rap battle rhetoric. Filed in January 2025, Drake claimed UMG knowingly promoted false accusations. Vargas called the Drake-Lamar feud, spanning 8–9 diss tracks, “hip-hop’s most infamous.” Analytic Dreamz explores the Grammy-winning track’s cultural impact, UMG’s First Amendment win, and Drake’s appeal plans. From Super Bowl performances to legal precedents, get the full breakdown of this landmark hip-hop case with Analytic Dreamz!
