    I’m not saying Nav did it himself. I’m not saying XO wasn’t involved.

    I’m pushing back on the specific connection that you’re making that if Nav faked his album sales that means The Weeknd did it as well. Nav is his own artist with his own specific team. You act like The Weeknd is overseeing every single aspect of that nigga’s career

    They’re basically the only 2 artists currently on that label. Belly’s last album wasn’t even released under XO.

    If a record label only has 2 artists why would they have entirely different teams? This isn’t some major label with 300 artists.

    Weeknd has his own record label with only ONE other active artist signed, and somehow he doesn’t keep up with that artist nor share any team This is what we are being told

    You’re disingenuously acting like XO is some independent record label and isn’t just a subsidiary of UMG.

    People aren’t accusing pgLang of botting Kendrick’s new album, they’re accusing UMG, because they own Interscope who Kendrick works with for distribution.

    Y’all are just acting like the buck stops with XO because that’s The Weeknd’s subsidiary label under UMG.

    If you really wanna accuse a label for this, accuse them, they have the final say on anything regarding an XO release. A Nav album ain’t dropping without UMG greenlighting it

    Nav should've stopped at the 6th deluxe and ~60k sales. Instead, he dropped 3 more and pushed for 90k and it blew up in his face. Embarrassed himself and the guy who handed him a career.

    So let’s a***yze this: why would NAV sign with XO and not just directly go to UMG?

    It is essentially a partnership. Weeknd directly profits off NAV’s music since it’s released under his company.

    Obviously when NAV is cutting a portion of his check to The Weeknd it is for something in return. This would likely be team/staff, budget, and resources that The Weeknd has

    And yet nothing he does or releases gets allowed without UMG’s input and permission. Sounds like you should be blaming them

    UMG Uses Bots to Boost Nav Album Sales

    This must mean that their biggest artists use them as well right? Drake is using streaming farms to boost his numbers

    They hate UMG and Spotify until it’s time to post drakes numbers

  • Apr 8, 2025

    Nav actually made 830k but we know the Billboard is not going to let the greatest brown boy to ever do it win again This agenda is getting tired

    Hilarious that they believe that UMG is involved in all these conspiracies yet somehow Drake is completely clean in all of this

    UMG is aware of their releases yes.

    UMG would not be aware if someone/some people were independently going out their way to bot sales.

    The issue is sales were faked lol, not that something was released.

    So The Weeknd knows but whoever at UMG is overseeing Nav wouldn’t know? Do you hear yourself?

    @iHype did. This is his big win for the week

  • Apr 8, 2025

    Dawg the issue isn’t even that Weeknd knows or doesn’t know, that’s irrelevant.

    The issue is trying to insinuate that JUST BECAUSE Nav was faking sales, that means The Weeknd was faking sales as well. That’s utterly ridiculous.

    Just because you have a friend or business partner that’s doing some illegal s***, that doesn’t mean you’re doing the same thing just because you know them or work with them or even employ them
