Is the hatred for Drake real, or is there a coordinated effort by automated bots to spread negativity toward the Toronto rap superstar? Eagle-eyed fans have noticed that three of Drizzy’s recent releases on YouTube are more disliked than his previous releases. What gives?
Is Drake’s current hatred coming from a real person or a bot?
On Sunday (May 26), DJ Akademiks took to X (formerly Twitter) to share the last three tracks Drake has released on YouTube: “Family Matters,” “The Heart Part 6,” and his collaboration with sexyy Red The song “U My Everything”. Interestingly, three of Drizzy’s most recent songs have received more dislikes on the video-sharing platform than his previous songs.
Since posting the news on May 26, Drake’s last three songs have received an unusually high number of dislikes on YouTube. “Family Matters” has more than 400,000 likes, while “Heart Part 6” has more than 1.6 million likes. In addition, Drake’s song “U My Everything” featuring Sexyy Red has received more than 94,000 likes. Drizzy’s YouTube dislikes can be viewed below this article.
By comparison, before Drake’s epic rap feud with Kendrick Lamar, his other sexy red duet “Rich Baby Daddy” (which dropped on February 14) only had 59,000 dislikes. It’s clear that Drizzy’s distaste for his own songs has grown since his lyrical battle with K-Dot.

Is Drake the victim of a mysterious army of hatebots?
What’s happening to Drake right now could be similar to what Pusha T went through last summer.
In July 2023, Pusha T was targeted by a mysterious bot army who posted a large number of derogatory tweets against him for unknown reasons.
X user Kurrco alerted people that a secret army of bots was posting defamatory posts about Virginia Rhymes. Some vulgar messages are defamatory and downright evil.
“Pusha T collects salamanders and impregnates them during the summer [sunshine emoji],” read a strange post.
Another strange message read: “Pusha T sold coke to my little third grade cousin.”
An inflammatory post attacked Push’s good character.
“Pusha T does nothing but braid his hair, love his wife, sell cocaine to the community and attack his family. Let this man deal with it in peace.” [three tired face emojis]”.
At the time, fans speculated that Drake ordered the bot attack in retaliation for King Push’s 2018 diss track “The Story of Adidon,” in which he revealed that Drizzy was the father of a young son, a fact he had been keeping. Public confidentiality. During their battle, Six Gods never responded, which by default made Push the victor of their lyrical battle.
Still, last summer’s mysterious robot attack on Pusha T remains a mystery, as no real explanation has been provided.
