Artist named Avocuddle admits to botting plays and followers here:

He purchased followers in August. Along with proof of admittance above, I've also provided a chart of his followers moving vertically on the day he purchased followers.
Origin of his plays stem from this specific playlist, which is heavily botted at Spotify's expense: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3LFIBdP7eZXJKqf3guepZ1
