Drake is no stranger to voicing his thoughts on social media, and his latest move has fans speculating that he believes his new collaborative album, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U with PARTYNEXTDOOR, isn’t getting fair treatment—specifically on Spotify.
In a post made by polarizing culture commentator Akademiks, it is alleged that when searching for Drake’s new album, Kendrick Lamar’s album ‘GNX ‘appears instead, preventing listeners from listening to the collaboration between Drizzy and PARTYNEXTDOOR.
“So I search for Kendrick on Spotify and GNX pops up… then I go ahead and search for Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR and SSS 4 U doesn’t pop up… Spotify on some bulls**t,” the post read.
Drake liked a post allegedly saying that '$$$4U' is being suppressed on Spotify, while Kendrick Lamar’s 'GNX' shows up normally

Drake liked the post, adding fuel to the fire of the fan debates that have raged since his spar with Lamar and his recent legal action against Universal Music Group and Spotify (though he has since dropped the streamer from his filing).
Despite the controversy, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U continues to dominate the charts, making history as the biggest R&B/Soul album debut in Apple Music’s history based on first-day global streams.
