Universal Music boss Lucian Grainge finally fired back at Drake's lawsuit against the company over Kendrick Lamar's diss track, calling it 'ridiculous.'

In a declaration letter filed Thursday night in the Southern District of New York, Grainge said Drake's accusation that UMG (parent label firm to both Drake and Lamar) defamed him “makes no sense.”

Sir Lucian Grainge finds it absolutely RIDICULOUS that Drake says he was behind a scheme to hurt one of his biggest artists when the label released Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" diss track ... the Universal Music Group CEO's says he's got way bigger responsibilities as head of the company,
