Atlantic Records Denies Using Bots & Fake Views To Boost Their Artists’ Numbers Following Claims Of Unusual Accounts Flooding The Comment Section Of Don Toliver’s New Music Video

Atlantic Records is being accused of using bots to boost their artists’ numbers. 

Fans couldn’t help but notice that the comment section for Don Toliver’s new music video is allegedly flooded with fake accounts and bot pages. The internet is now accusing Atlantic Records of using fake views to boost Don Toliver’s data ratios (likes to views to shares etc.). 

On social media, Don Toliver’s video for “Do It Right,” which was released six days ago on Nov. 22, is being used as evidence of this unfortunate claim against the record label. One Twitter user shared a screenshot of the comments from Don Toliver’s video, shining a light on the alleged “fake” comments that seemingly serve no context with the project. 

In a recent interview, a representative for Toliver, born Caleb Zackery, revealed that the 28-year-old’s team is upset by the claims against his label. The rep said:

“Just like other artists and their teams who have been attacked with botting reports, we are both deeply upset and concerned. To be absolutely clear, neither Don or anyone on his team has had any involvement here.”

They added:

 “While we conduct our own investigation into the allegations, we urge Atlantic Records to do the same — to protect the integrity of not only their roster of artists but their reporting metrics. We look forward to sharing more as we obtain more information.”

This isn’t the first time these allegations were brought upon Atlantic Records. On Saturday (Nov. 26) DJ Akademiks took to Twitter and accused the label of making their artists look bad with their alleged number-boosting scheme. DJ Akademiks wrote:

“Damn.. Atlantic Records went from being hella lit a few years ago to being sh*t… they literally threw in the towell on marketing and promotin their artists..they just buying WILD amounts of fake views…which makin their artists look even worse.”

Since the accusations, the label, who also signed artists such as Lil Uzi Vert, Roddy Ricch, A Boogie and more, denied buying views for their artists stating:

 “Atlantic Records has never used bots for any of our artists.”
