How Drake, Young Thug, and the Kendrick Lamar Suit Spotlight Stream Botting and Industry Pay-to-Play Tactics

A video that unpacks a resurfaced throwback: back in 2018, Spotify unleashed an unprecedented global takeover promotion for Drake’s album Scorpion—nicknamed Scorpion SZN—placing his face on dozens of editorial playlists, from “Massive Dance Hits” to “Best of British,” many of which didn’t even feature his music   . It provoked major backlash from Spotify users, who accused the platform of turning “ad-free” accounts into billboard real estate and even demanded refunds   .

Fast forward to the present, and Young Thug has allegedly admitted to inflating streaming numbers through bots, as revealed in a jail call that just surfaced. One Redditor summarized:

“Young Thug admits he and CashXO were both botting streams for Gunna…” .
This echoes past industry criticism around “stream botting,” label-driven playlist payola, and artificially boosted plays—the very issues Drake accused Kendrick Lamar of in his ongoing lawsuit.

This video ties all three threads together: the Spotify promotional blitz for Drake, Young Thug’s recent self-incrimination over fake streams, and the hypocrisy at play beneath Kendrick Lamar’s legal claim. It casts a critical eye on how streaming numbers, promotional power, and legal battles collide in a music industry seemingly corrupted by botting, pay-for-play, and algorithm manipulation.
