Drake Sparks Drama by Involving Sofia Richie in Feud with Kendrick Lamar and Lucian Grainge
On Wednesday, Drake involved Sofia Richie in his longstanding feud with Kendrick Lamar and Universal Music Group by bringing her into the dispute.
A 38-year-old Canadian shared a photo on Instagram from a secret account (@plottttwistttttt) of the 26-year-old offspring of Lionel Richie, wearing the October’s Very Own owl logo. This isn’t his main account, it’s more like a secondary one.
However, contrary to speculation, Sofia wasn’t digitally manipulated but was indeed employed by Drake (whose real name is Aubrey Graham) for the FW/20 women’s advertising campaign of his fashion brand he co-founded with Oliver El-Khatib and Noah ’40’ Shebib in 2008.
Richie not only showcased OVO’s $88 turtleneck bodysuit, but she also fit her 5 feet 6 inch frame in OVO’s $48 Owl T-shirt and the $306 ‘Chenille’ sweatsuit.
Or, more informally: Richie rocked not just the $88 turtleneck bodysuit from OVO, but she also squeezed herself into an OWL T-shirt from OVO for $48 and their $306 Chenille sweatsuit.
It’s common knowledge that the five-time Grammy Award recipient understands she became the wife of Elliot Grainge in 2023, thereby making her the daughter-in-law to Lucian Grainge, who heads Universal Music Group.

On November 25, Drake filed a lawsuit against Universal Music Group (UMG), accusing them of employing unlawful bots and a payola system to illegally boost the streaming counts for Kendrick’s song “Not Like Us,” which is perceived as a diss track.
During the Super Bowl LIX half-time spectacle, which drew a massive audience of 133.5 million viewers and featured a renowned 37-year-old Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, neither the partner associated with the stakeholder nor his companions were present.
According to a source, he couldn’t prevent our group from being performed, and he wasn’t pleased with this outcome. [DailyMail.com] reported this.
‘He finds it reassuring that his work seemed to strike a chord with Kendrick’s primary audience, who have seemingly distanced themselves from him. Yet, he’s elated that the crowd didn’t appreciate Kendrick’s performance, boosting his confidence in his potential return, despite the belief that he may have lost some of his dedicated followers.’
For a significant portion of the previous year, Drake found himself engaged in a highly publicized dispute with Lamar. This conflict led him to create four satirical tracks: “Push Ups”, “Taylor Made Freestyle”, “Family Matters”, and “The Heart Part 6”. In these songs, he jokingly addressed various topics such as Lamar’s short stature (5ft5in), accusations of domestic/sexual misconduct, the percentage of his record deal, and his collaborations with Taylor Swift and Maroon 5.
22-time Grammy award recipient emerged victorious following a series of five critical songs (namely, ‘Like That’, ‘Euphoria’, ‘6:16 in LA’, ‘Meet the Grahams’, and ‘Not Like Us’), which leveled allegations against the OVO Sound co-founder. These accusations included the use of Ozempic, pedophilia, and the claim that he had an 11-year-old daughter out of wedlock.
Initially, the competitive rappers worked together harmoniously, contributing to Drake’s 2011 album ‘Take Care’, Kendrick Lamar’s 2012 song ‘Poetic Justice’, and A$AP Rocky’s 2013 track ‘F* Problems’.
In 2012, the dynamic duo joyfully embarked on a tour together, coinciding with the biracial rap sensation’s lucrative 65-show Club Paradise Tour that grossed an impressive $42.6 million.
Or, more casually:
Back in 2012, these two gifted artists hit the road together, joining forces during the hip-hop star’s successful Club Paradise Tour which raked in a cool $42.6M over 65 shows.
