Fake artist ripping off legitimate artists

Fake artist ripping off legitimate artists

Hello, 

 

I have recently come across a guy who is uploading songs that are not his, adding -original mix and is abusing the Spotify system as well as taking credit away from the original artist.

 

Fake artist: https://open.spotify.com/track/42O10zuwKfuszEzTz9e5bC

 

Real artist: https://open.spotify.com/track/5NmENli4oodYuWrI0vSGK4

 

Fake artist: https://open.spotify.com/track/35IAlROFoQFan7xciuo3E3

 

Real artist: https://open.spotify.com/track/4B2kkxg3wKSTZw5JPaUtzQ

 

This continues with many of his uploads and those are just a few examples.

Hey @12162366751,

 

Right now, only the artist or the rights owner can make these claims: https://support.spotify.com/article/report-content-infringement/.

 

I'd recommend trying reaching out to the artist so they can file the claim.

 

Thanks!
