Drake Refers To Spotify As 'Botify' During BenDaDonnn Stream

Drake couldn’t help himself during a recent stream with BenDaDonnn, jokingly referring to Spotify, a platform on which he yet again saw strong numbers for 2025, as “Botify.” The offhanded remark came as the Iceman artist was trying to pull up a song on the platform, which was previously made the subject of refuted claims of artificially boosted streams in connection with Kendrick Lamar’s Grammy-winning “Not Like Us” diss. In October, Drake’s lawsuit against UMG over the track was dismissed in a statement in connection with unrelated legal action from a separate party in November, a Spotify spokesperson said the platform “in no way benefits from the industry-wide challenge of artificial streaming.” Instead, per the spokesperson, Spotify has invested in “always-improving, best-in-class systems to combat it” while working to “safeguard artist payouts with strong protections,” including the removal of fake streams.
