Drake says Lamar's halftime performance at February's Super Bowl revitalized attention to false and defamatory allegations against him.

Drake might be dragging Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime performance into his lawsuit with Universal Music Group. However, the NFL would not be a defendant in the case but a witness, according to NBC and Sportico.

Drake has filed an amended complaint in his defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” stating that the label used Lamar’s wins at the Grammy Awards and performance of the song during the Super Bowl Halftime Show to further promote the single and damage his reputation.
