Doesn't fit, does it? His work only really fits the profile of a passion or maybe a vanity project. His "label" selling verses in his tracks makes me think he's really all about clout and fakey sort of posturing bullshit, so that does fit the MO of a faked C&D. Would a spoiled manchild risk a defamation* suit by falsifying legal notices from one of the largest, most oligarchic, most childishly run corporations in the world? Maybe. But that doesn't explain why the news sites are falsely characterizing his track as a critique of the truck.

Libel maybe? IANAL but it seems risky
