CNN —Drake recently dropped his eighth studio album, and it apparently comes with a bit of controversy.
English band the Pet Shop Boys called the Canadian singer out on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday – the day Drake released his “For All the Dogs” album.
“Surprising to hear @Drake singing the chorus of ‘West End girls’ in the track ‘All the Parties’ on his new album,” the band’s tweet read.
“No credit given or permission requested.”Toward the end of the “Parties” track, Drake does indeed sing the chorus of “West End Girls,” the Pet Shop Boys’ hit song off their 1986 album “Please.”CNN has reached out to representatives of Drake for comment.
The Pet Shop Boys perform on the Other Stage at the Glastonbury festival near the village of Pilton in Somerset, southwest England, on June 26, 2022.
