I personally don't have an issue with this. :manny: How you gonna get upset at Universal for dropping that bag to promote their artist and at Spotify for taking a check? I bet the same ppl that are complaining wouldn't have an issue if it was their favorite artist all on the front page.
It's supposed to reflect your favorite artists on your home page. This is a bad look fr, no need to cape for multi-million dollar corporations and industry plants.

EXACTLY.....

People.fail to.realize PAYOLA hasn't DIED it just MULTIPLED.and MORPHED into a DIGITAL FORM on a NEW LEVEL

Drake's.label UNIVERSAL owns SHARES of SPOTIFY....it's a pathetic conflict of interest but it is what it is

Spotify: At Day’s Close, What Are the Major Labels’ Shares Worth? A Lot …


And.I.agree people wouldn't complain if it was thier favorite artist giving the spotlight like this

Because if this was NAS new lp being promoted like this ....I certainly wouldn't complain
:ehh:

They were definitely doing too much, he was the cover of everything, lead set of songs on every playlist he was actually on

i saw this Saturday and was wondering wtf was going on. shyt was definitely overkill.

Spotify def got a bag for it and also are trying to compete with Apple music for the subscribers so they pulled out all the stops. especially since Spotify didn’t even get the album up until the next day, a lot of people had signed up for that Apple trial by then to hear the album on drop

they went wayyy to overboard tho, anything past rap caviar was unnecessary

i don’t think his stream numbers are fake as much as these companies really just using him to promo their platform over the other.

I took this as Spotify trying to capitalize on the fact that Drake has no identity of his own. :manny:
