Drake‘s legal woes have taken yet another twist as the 6 God has been named in a new class action lawsuit accusing Spotify of “turning a blind-eye” to “mass-scale fraudulent streaming.”
The lawsuit, filed by rapper RBX — a cousin of Snoop Dogg who is best known for his collaborations with Dr. Dre and Eminem — cites Drake as the main beneficiary of this alleged misconduct, claiming a “substantial” amount of his record 122 billion Spotify streams have come through illegal methods such as bots.
Such mass scale streaming fraud “causes massive financial harm to legitimate artists, songwriters, producers, and other rightsholders,” argues the suit, which was obtained by Rolling Stone.
Though Drake is named in the lawsuit, he is not listed as a defandant. Only Spotify is accused of wrongdoing.
