If you are not aware of the Kendrick Lamar-Drake rap feud that took over the world last year, the only possible explanation is that you’ve been living under a rock. Throughout the globe, fans of hip-hop were divided into two teams but now, the world unanimously believes Kendrick Lamar to be the winner of the battle thanks to his jaw-dropping hit,Not Like Us,where he accuses his opponent of ped*philia.
Later, Drake dropped his freestyle,Fighting Irish,on his YouTube reflecting on it all but it looks like there is more to be added to the feud before it dies down for good. Now, the Canadian rapper has shocked fans everywhere after filing a lawsuit against Universal Music Group and name-dropping a few YouTubers in it, including Kai Cenat.
Drake names Kai Cenat in his latest lawsuit
After the rap battle,Drakeis now looking to battle it out in the courtroom. On January 15, the rapper filed a lawsuit against UMG, the record label representing both him andKendrick Lamar. However, a statement from the lawsuit clarifies that it“is not about the artist who created ‘Not Like Us.’Then who is it about?
Well, it looks like Drake is out to get UMG for allowing content creators to react toNot Like Usand make a profit at the cost of his safety. According to the lawsuit (viaCourt Listener),“UMG approved, published, and launched a campaign to create a viral hit out of a rap track that falsely accuses Drake of being a ped*phile.”

The lawsuit also accused UMG of “whitelisting”the videos in order to turn a profit. The YouTubers mentioned in the lawsuit are RDC Gaming, Zias!, No Life Shaq, the CartierFamily, and last but not least,Kai Cenat. Furthermore, the lawsuit claims that UMG“paid influencers on Instagram and X to post content about the Defamatory Material for the purpose of spreading the content to larger audiences.”
Lawsuit aside, fans are a little bewildered after seeing Cenat’s name in the lawsuit, especially after a moment between him and Drake on the content creator’s stream.
Internet reacts to Kai Cenat’s name in Drake’s lawsuit
Last year on May 04, the popular Internet personality was streaming when chaos erupted. He received a DM from none other than Drake himself, which made him run around his room in excitement, understandably so.

Cenat even showed proof of the message on his stream. Drake’s message read,“Stay on stream”with a Devil emoji to go along with it. This took place moments before the rapper dropped his diss track on Lamartitled,Family Matters.
Check out the moment below:

Drake calling out Cenat in his lawsuit for reacting to Lamar’s song after telling him to stay on stream for his diss track seems a little too hypocritical to fans. Take a look at how netizens called the rapper out:
He’s literally such a baby
Drake is snitching on everyone 🤣
Drake has to know this makes him look like a huge loser
drake just makes himself look worse every day bruhh
Drake a little girl I told you guys
Little did Drake know that his move was going to take away some serious popularity points from him on social media! Time will tell what becomes of the lawsuit.
