DJ Akademiks is among those who believe Kendrick Lamar botted his way to victory over Drake this summer.
However, his own behavior suggests Kendrick's success may have been organic.
Ak was surprised to learn that Kendrick Drake diss "Not Like Us" was his most streamed track of 2024.
Kendrick Lamar's 'Not Like Us' was Akademiks' #1 song of 2024 on Spotify 👀

Drake is considering suing UMG and Spotify for artificially promoting "Not Like Us" through bots and other means.
