I don't listen to hiphop, and this is the first I'm hearing about this.

UMG approved, published, and launched a campaign to create a viral hit out of a rap track that falsely accuses Drake of being a pedophile and calls for violent retribution against him

This sounds pretty bad. And if UMG marketed it as much as the lawsuit claims, maybe he actually has a case.

And this actually resulted in a shooting and break-ins.

He accused the other guy of beating his wife during the beef too. Lawsuit doesn't mention that.
