In that case, Drake sued UMG for defamation, claiming they knowingly promoted false claims contained in Kendrick Lamar’s smash hit “Not Like Us.” Drake claimed his reputation was damaged after Kendrick Lamar branded him a “certified pedophile,” similar to claims Dixon made against Fat Joe on social media.…

But Doe Or Die proved he was far more than a standout feature—he was a complete artist with his own identity, voice, and vision. With its cinematic aura and mafioso themes, the album helped define…
