Identity Theft

[jakegerb]

Someone is using Santanas Identity to get on Release Radars of people. 
This song is a trap song, and has nothing to do with the real Santana. The real artist is even linked to the fake song which makes this even worse. 

Spotify do something about it! 

I blocked this song on my release radar, because I don't want my ears to bleed from music I never actually subscribed to.

there is no appropriate button to report it. this week again on my release radar:

one guy called gary franks collaborated with a guy named john williams. it's not the john williams that I follow, however it still is on my radar. makes no sense.

same for a guy who collaborated with a guy named santana. obviously it was not the real one. the song is literal garbage. still it is on my release radar.

I think you don't understand the real problem here.

thanks for your reply. Ok so now I know where to report it. But the problem keeps coming back. Also I think going through various stages in order to report something THIS big, being much of a problem for probably millions of people.
