”This is rock bottom” — Fans react to Drake’s claims of Spotify allegedly certifying fake streams from Kendrick Lamar

Drake recently claimed Spotify had reportedly been using bots to push fake streams for Kendrick Lamar. Both artists have released diss tracks against each other during their rap feud.

On June 29, 2024, the 37-year-old posted a comment on Trainwrecktv's Kick stream. He wrote,

"Hey pragmatic can we take it back to 2022... can you backdoor Eddie like Spotify backdoored the streams for that one song from that one guy."

Fans quickly took to X and offered their theories that Drake was referencing Lamar.

"Crying and making excuses in the kick chatroom nah this is rock bottom," one user stated.

Other netizens also trolled Drake for not letting go of the diss battle.

"His ego is hurt to the core 😭🙏" one fan claimed.

"Drake still thinking about Kendrick in July 😭😭😭😭" another user quipped.

"It just keeps getting sadder and sadder. Man's still talking numbers tells you that he knows he lost. Making it so much worse for him cuz he keeps going," one netizen shared.

Kendrick Lamar's diss tracks against Drake have been relatively more successful digitally. In May, one of his four diss tracks, Not Like Us, topped the Billboard Hot 100 with 70.9 million streams. Some users also talked about the same on social media, defending Lamar while others backed Drake and questioned Spotify.

"Those streams can’t be back doored. If you actually leave your house (insane concept for a lot of you) it’s hard to avoid hearing it anywhere," one user said.

"Someone audit @Spotify," one fan stated.

"FACTS. Whole industry trying to take down bro They can't stand he been on top for a decade. 20 mans don't randomly make albums and tracks against 1 guy by accident," one netizen claimed.

Several fans also poked fun at Drake's loss against Kendrick in terms of streams and told the rapper to admit defeat.

"He can’t deal with he got out streamed by Dot 🤦🏾‍♂️" a user commented.

"He just needs to accept he has lost🤷‍♂️" another netizen claimed.
