Drake challenges ruling in defamation case over Kendrick diss cut
Drake is image in a legal fight over words from Kendrick Lamar’s diss cut Not Approval Us, after a US court earlier dismissed his defamation case against Universal Music.
The judge earlier said that the track should be understood as part of a rap battle, where artists often use strong and exaggerated words, not real life facts.
Drake’s side now says this play missed an important point about how everyday listeners would actually hear and understand the cut.
In the new attraction, the Nokia hitmker’s lawyers argue that many people did not follow the full backdrop of the beef between the two rappers.
Because of that, they believe some listeners may have taken the words more seriously than they were meant to be.
