A mashup of The Weeknd’s Starboy track, “Secrets,” and Drake’s More Lifetrack, “Passionfruit,” hit SoundCloud early Wednesday (May 24) — as well as a few music websites — alongside an extended remix of “Tell You Friends,” featuring Kanye West, Nas, Ghostface Killah, Drake, Young Braised and Belly.
There’s one problem — neither were authorized remixes, according to The Weeknd’s official Twitter account.
“[T]his isn’t my soundcloud,” the Canadian R&B star wrote. “We didn’t upload anything. These are fake mashups.”
So far, both remixes have been taken down from SoundCloud. According to Pitchfork, Young Kipper’s “Secrets/Passionfruit” mashup premiered on Drake’s OVO Sound radio show in April, however, there isn’t anyone currently attached to the “Tell Your Friends” remix.
