Drake and iHeartMedia Inc. have officially settled the legal action that Drake brought against the iHeartRadio owner.
Three months after Drizzle accused Universal Music Group in a Texas court filing of making “covert payments” to radio stations to “play and promote” Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” Drake is letting iHeartRadio off the hook in the case.
Drake and iHeartMedia “reached an amicable resolution of the dispute to the satisfaction of both sides,” according to a Thursday court filing in Bexar County.
The Canadian rapper has updated his case – originally filed November 21 – to remove the San Antonio-based company.
“In exchange for documents that showed iHeart did nothing wrong, Drake agreed to drop his petition. No payments were made by either one of us,” a spokesperson for iHeartMedia said in a statement.
Drake’s legal team said in a statement, “We are pleased that the parties were able to reach a settlement satisfactory to both sides, and have no further comment on this matter.”
