Drake’s company has filed a lawsuit against UMG, claiming the company launched a campaign to manipulate streaming services and airwaves in favor of a song by fellow rapper Sheck Wes, 'A Bar Song'. The petition follows the release of Lamar's album 'Not Like Us', which includes the hit song 'Old Town Road' that has been nominated for five Grammy Awards and spent 20 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot Rap Songs chart.

Drake’s Frozen Moments company filed a petition in a New York court Monday, alleging that UMG — the parent label both rappers are signed to — “launched a campaign to manipulate and saturate the streaming services and airwaves with a song, ‘Shaboozey's "A Bar Song" Ties "Old Town Road" for Most Weeks at No.1 on Billboard Hot 100 Chart

UMG said in a statement that the allegations are “offensive and untrue.” Drake is signed to UMG subsidiary Republic Records, while Lamar is signed to UMG’s Interscope Records. The petition comes days after Lamar released the surprise album“Not Like Us” is one of the year’s biggest hits. It spent two weeks on top of the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 chart; it spent 20 at No. 1 on the Hot rap songs chart. The song is nominated for five Grammy Awards, including song and record of the year.
