Back when radio stations didn’t sound identical across the nation, there was the problem of payola where a DJ could be paid to promote certain songs. Rapper Drake believes this is still continuing to this day — but that the name of the DJ in question is Siri.
“On information and belief, UMG [Universal Music Group] paid, or approved payments to, Apple Inc. to have its voice-activated digital assistant ‘Siri’ purposely misdirect users to ‘Not Like Us,'” says a court filing by Drake’s lawyers. “Online sources reported that when users asked Siri to play the album ‘Certified Loverboy’ by recording artist Aubrey Drake Graham d/b/a [doing business as] Drake, Siri instead played ‘Not Like Us,’ which contains the lyric ‘certified pedophile,’ an allegation against Drake.”
