Drake's Defamation Defeat, Spotify Surge, and ICEMAN Hype Amid Kendrick Feud
Drake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Drake just experienced a major legal setback when a federal judge dismissed his defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group on October ninth. Judge Jeannette Vargas ruled that Kendrick Lamar's diss track "Not Like Us" which explicitly called Drake a pedophile was protected opinion rather than defamation, stating that reasonable listeners would understand the accusations as part of a heated rap battle rather than verifiable facts. Digital Music News dubbed this Drake getting "decisively spanked in court" while his legal team has announced plans to appeal the decision.
Despite this courtroom loss, Drake is having what could be his biggest year ever on Spotify. According to Hot New Hip Hop, he recently surpassed fourteen billion streams on the platform in twenty twenty five, putting him on pace for a record breaking year. This streaming success follows his collaboration album with PARTYNEXTDOOR earlier this year and builds anticipation for his upcoming solo album ICEMAN. The hype is real as his Travis Scott collaboration SICKO MODE just tied God's Plan as the second highest RIAA certified hip hop song of all time.
On the social media front, Drake posted an Instagram carousel on October sixteenth featuring a provocative t shirt reading "Hating Drake Doesn't Make You Deep" which Complex and Hot New Hip Hop reported as his latest response to critics. The move has been widely mocked online as tone deaf given the circumstances surrounding his legal defeat and ongoing criticism following his feud with Kendrick Lamar.
DJ Akademiks revealed during a VladTV interview that Drake is planning a major interview soon, which would be significant given his usual aversion to traditional media. Meanwhile former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel suggested fans should expect ICEMAN to drop by November at the latest, though no official release date has been announced. Drake also recently took subliminal shots at Kendrick Lamar and even LeBron James during his second ICEMAN livestream and on his track "What Did I Miss."
