Universal Music Group has fired back at Drake’s attempt to sue it over the release of Kendrick Lamar’s diss track Not Like Us last year.

Drake had filed a lawsuit on Tuesday, accusing Universal Music Group of defamation by allowing the song to be published, claiming it had spread the “false and malicious narrative” that he is a pedophile.

In response, Universal, which has been Drake’s label for more than a decade, described the claims as untrue and illogical.

It also accused the star of trying to “silence” Lamar by taking their rap battle to the courts.
