Drake Settles Lawsuit With ‘Marvin’s Room’ Girl

According to TMZ, Drake has called an end to his legal battle with the female vocalist from his hit record “Marvin’s Room,” as the two parties have finally settled their dispute. 

Ericka Lee filed a lawsuit against the YMCMB artist last year claiming she co-wrote the song, but never received credit or compensation.

Drake’s response was pretty straight forward…go f*ck yourself! According to Drizzy, he had never promised Erika any form of credit or compensation for her contribution.

Ericka also claims she was threatened by Drake when she didn’t back down from her lawsuit…another allegation that Drake has denied.

The feuding parties have come to an agreement, and the case was finally dismissed February 2nd.

Though it’s unclear whether or not Drake had to cough up some dough, it’s not like he couldn’t afford to do so!
