STORY: Rapper Drake took his running feud with fellow superstar Kendrick Lamar to court this week.He filed a pair of court notices Monday warning of legal action against major music companies for what Drake called manipulative promotion of Lamar’s record-breaking ‘diss’ track “Not Like Us.”The song, released earlier this year, has lyrics suggesting Drake is a sex offender – with lines like “Drake, I hear you like ‘em young” – as well as references to a ‘certified pedophile,’ and a ‘predator.’The long-building beef between the two hit a fever pitch this year in a flurry of diss tracks, with the artists at one point releasing multiple recordings back-and-forth in the span of a week.Now Drake has filed a petition in Texas serving notice to music giants iHeartMedia and Universal Music Group.He’s accusing them of scheming to turn ‘Not Like Us’ into a viral hit at his expense – with Drake being a fellow Universal artist.Universal denied it undermined Drake, or that it used unethical practices to market Lamar's song.iHeartRadio representatives did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.Also on Monday: Drake’s company Frozen Moments filed a similar action in New York Supreme Court against Universal and Spotify.In that filing, he accused Universal of a campaign to, quote “manipulate and saturate" streaming services, "including by using 'bots' and pay-to-play agreements."Neither the New York or Texas cases are formal lawsuits, but rather notice that one could be coming.Universal also contested those allegations in a statement, while Spotify did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

BEIJING (Reuters) -China's state media warned U.S. President-elect Donald Trump his pledge to slap additional tariffs on Chinese goods over fentanyl flows could drag the world's top two economies into a mutually destructive tariff war. Trump, who takes office on Jan. 20, said on Monday he would impose "an additional 10% tariff, above any additional tariffs" on imports from China until Beijing clamped down on trafficking of the chemical precursors used to make the deadly drug. Trump's first term resulted in a trade war that uprooted global supply chains and hurt every economy as inflation and borrowing costs shot up.
