Drake Disses Spotify on Livestream: Calls It “Botify”

Last year, Drake named Spotify in a lawsuit tied to his broader fight with Universal Music Group, alleging the use of bots to inflate streams for Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss, “Not Like Us.”
Now the tension just bubbled up again. During a recent livestream, Drake derisively referred to the service as “Botify,”reviving the bot narrative and nudging fans to question streaming integrity. The jab comes as debates about manipulated metrics, chart credibility, and label-platform politics keep dominating rap’s current era.
Spotify hasn’t responded to the latest crack, and Drake didn’t elaborate beyond the nickname—but the message was clear: he’s still pressing the issue.
One word, big shade. With lawsuits and subtext in play, expect more eyes on streaming numbers and who benefits from them.
