A defamation lawsuit filed by Drake against Universal Music Group (UMG) has been dismissed by a New York federal judge. The case revolved around allegations that UMG knowingly promoted Kendrick Lamar's Grammy-winning song 'Not Like Us', which falsely insinuated Drake had sexual relations with minors. The judge ruled the song's content as 'nonactionable opinion', stemming from a high-profile rap battle. Drake's team plans to appeal the decision.
