A lawsuit filed in the California District Court on Sunday alleges that Drake’s streams have been artificially inflated by bots and accuses Spotify of turning a blind eye.

The lead plaintiff of the suit, gangster rapper RBX (Long Island native and cousin of Snoop Dogg), alleges that Drake and Spotify ran a large-scale botting operation that spanned multiple years, inflating the Canadian rapper's stream metrics to the tune of billions.

According to Consequence, the botting operation relied on VPNs to hide the real location of Drake’s supposed fans. The lawsuit claims that in 2024, Drake received 250,000 streams in a four-day period that were falsely geotracked to the United Kingdom, though they actually came from Turkey. It also alleges that a large percentage of Drake’s streams came from locations “where the population could not support such a high volume of streams.”

After losing the world’s most public rap beef last year, being called a predator during the Super Bowl this year and last month having a defamation suit thrown out by a judge, Drake is having a pretty hard time.
