Last month Canadian rapper Drake filed a defamation of character lawsuit against Universal Music Group for distributing Kendrick Lamar’s diss track, “Not Like Us.”
According to HipHopDX, UMG claims Drake has agreed to withdraw key allegations made in his suit.
The hip hop news and gossip site said that in a letter to the court filed on Friday (February 21), UMG lawyer Rollin A. Ransom asks for a pretrial conference currently scheduled for April 2 to be delayed so that the court would have time to consider Universal’s motion to dismiss the case entirely, which the company must file on or before March 17.
The letter also reportedly says, without explicitly stated what they are, that specifics from the case might change.
“[P]ursuant to separate correspondence, Plaintiff has agreed to withdraw certain key allegations in his complaint,” the letter reportedly said.
