Drake Calls Spotify To Support “Not Like Us” Instead Of Kendrick Lamar, Who’s Accused Of “Botting” His Live Streams
The music industry always witnesses fierce competition between top artists. Recently, the confrontation between two music icons Drake and Kendrick Lamar attracted special attention from the media and fans. In a surprising move, Drake publicly called on Spotify to support his new song “Not Like Us” instead of Kendrick Lamar, who is being accused of “bottling” his livestreams.
Drake, a famous artist with many hits such as “Hotline Bling”, “God’s Plan”, and the recently released album “Certified Lover Boy”, constantly affirms his position in the international music industry. The new song “Not Like Us” is expected to continue the success of previous products. To achieve this goal, Drake called on Spotify, the world’s largest music streaming platform, to favor his new song.
Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar, a rap artist with hit albums like “Good Kid, M.A.A.D City” and “DAMN.”, is facing accusations of “bottling” his livestreams. The term “bottling” refers to the creation of fake listen figures to create the impression of success. Although there is no confirmed evidence, these allegations have had a significant impact on Kendrick Lamar’s image.
Drake, in a recent interview, candidly expressed his views on this. He believes that authentic music products, created from real effort and talent, like “Not Like Us”, deserve support from platforms like Spotify. This call is not only to promote Drake’s new song but also as a direct challenge to Kendrick Lamar.
Drake’s call received mixed reactions from the public. Drake’s fans were supportive, believing that he deserved recognition for his genuine contributions to music. On the contrary, fans of Kendrick Lamar still steadfastly defend their idol, saying that Kendrick does not need to cheat to prove his talent.
Spotify, as the leading streaming platform, is currently facing great pressure from both sides. Whether they will support Drake’s song or continue to maintain balance between artists is something that many people are interested in. Spotify’s decision could significantly impact both artists’ careers and reshape the way artists interact with the platform in the future.
The face-off between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, with its debates over streaming figures and support from streaming platforms, has highlighted the challenges in the modern music industry. As they wait for a response from Spotify, fans of both artists will continue to monitor the developments in this battle. Can “Not Like Us” really surpass the works of Kendrick Lamar? Time will tell, but it is certain that this battle will continue to cause waves in the international music industry.
