On November 25, in a " pre-action disclosure " for information filed on behalf of Drake's company Frozen Moments, Drake's attorneys accuse the major label he shares with Kendrick Lamar, Universal Music Group, of false advertisement, deceptive business practices, and violating the RICO Act. They allege that the company illegally bolstered streams of "Not Like Us" with bots and payola on platforms like Spotify and Apple and through undisclosed payments to social media influencers. The attorneys also claimed, without naming sources, that UMG workers who are "perceived as having loyalty to Drake" were fired.
