Drake Drops Legal Bombshell — Judge Greenlights Hunt for ‘Key Player’ in Kendrick Lamar Diss Track Scandal
Written by Dex Antikua on August 10, 2025
The rap beef of the decade just exploded in court. Drake has scored a major win in his blockbuster defamation case against Universal Music Group (UMG) — and now he’s coming for a man he says helped rig the game in Kendrick Lamar’s favor.
Judge Jeannette A. Vargas has officially granted Drake’s motion to subpoena Kojo Menne Asamoah, a figure the Toronto superstar claims was deep in the shadows of one of the most savage diss tracks in hip-hop history — Lamar’s “Not Like Us.”
In bombshell court documents, Drake’s lawyers accuse Asamoah of knowing all about UMG’s “covert tactics” to push the song to the top — even alleging he directed payments and financial incentives to fuel an online bot army that juiced its streaming numbers.
Why does that matter? Because “Not Like Us” didn’t just win the internet — it became one of 2024’s most successful songs, headlining Kendrick’s viral Super Bowl Halftime performance and calling Drake a “certified pedophile” in front of millions.
The judge has given Drake’s team the green light to go all out: certified mail, email, and even slapping the subpoena right on the doors of five addresses linked to Asamoah, his family, and his businesses. No hiding now.
The allegations rock the music world, hinting that one of the most talked-about tracks of the decade may have been supercharged by bots and backroom deals — not just pure fan love. And with discovery now moving forward, the truth behind this rap war might be messier than anyone imagined.
The Drake vs. Kendrick saga isn’t just about bars anymore… it’s about who’s been pulling the strings behind the hits.
