Pet Shop Boys accuse Drake of using their song ‘West End Girls’ without permission on his new album | Drake, Music | Just Jared: Celebrity News and Gossip

Drake is being accused of sampling another musical act’s song without asking.

The 36-year-old hitmaker released his new album For all dogs on Friday (October 6). That same day, the Pet Shop Boys took to social media to criticize him for using their song “West End Girls.”

The song, initially released in 1986, appears on Drake’s new release, “All the Parties.”

“It’s amazing to hear Drake singing the chorus of ‘West End Girls’ on the song ‘All the Parties’ from his new album. No credit given or permission requested,” Pet Shop Boys wrote on Instagram. The musical duo tagged Drake’s Instagram account in the caption and paired his message with the album cover.

At the time of publication, Drake does not appear to have responded.

Fans will probably remember that this isn’t the first time he’s been accused of using something without getting permission from another celebrity this album cycle. Last month, Halle Berry criticized the hitmaker for using a photo of her to promote a new single.

He later said he explicitly told her “no” when she asked for permission.

Fans have also been speculating that Drake is dissing Rihanna on his new album, and we rounded up some of the lyrics they’re using as proof.
