A Botted Christian Playlist Can Get YOUR Song Removed (Even If You Did Nothing Wrong)

🟡 Join the Christian Music Academy: https://www.skool.com/christianmusica... Here's a scary reality most independent artists don't know about: a botted playlist can add your song without your permission, spike your streams, and get you flagged — even though you did absolutely nothing wrong. When Spotify cracked down on fake streams in 2024-2025, they started fining distributors, and that cost gets passed straight down to you (or your song just gets yanked). The worst part? Smaller artists are the most vulnerable, because the algorithm hasn't validated your profile yet. In this video we show you exactly how this happens, how to spot it in your data, and what to do if it happens to you. 🎯 IN THIS VIDEO: •How an innocent artist gets flagged — a real example from our network where a clearly botted playlist added one of our artists' songs, spiked the streams, and earned a strike from the distributor even though we never botted anything •The "shelf" pattern that gives bots away — (once you see it, you can't unsee it) •Why small artists get hit hardest •The finger-pointing game — why Spotify blames your distributor and your distributor blames Spotify, and how the artist ends up eating the fine or the takedown either way •How to check your own account 📲 WANT THE FULL ROADMAP?
