Court gives Drake access to Kendrick Lamar’s recording contracts

10

Drake has been given the green light to access sensitive record company documents in his ongoing defamation case over Kendrick Lamar's song Not Like Us.

The star had asked for copies of Kendrick Lamar's recording contract, as well as information on salaries and bonuses for senior executives at his record label Universal Music Group (UMG).

Drake is accusing the company of defamation by allowing Lamar's song to be published and promoted, claiming it spread the "false and malicious narrative" that he is a paedophile.

Universal filed to dismiss the case last month, calling it an "illogical" attempt to "silence" Lamar's creative expression.
