The team of lawyers behind the court battle Drake waged with Spotify and Universal Music Group (UMG) is not backing down from requests for information proving the companies conspired against the artist.

On December 20, Spotify slammed Drake’s accusations of “artificially inflating” the popularity of Kendrick Lamar’s diss track “ Not Like Us ” with the use of bots and colluding with UMG in a payola scheme. Now, Drake’s legal team is firing back.

In addition to pushing back on claims that the company accepted undisclosed payments in connection with the scheme, Spotify asserted that Drake’s case was a “subversion of the normal judicial process.” In response, Drake’s team appeared to call Spotify’s bluff while also daring them to undergo due legal process to prove them wrong.
