there are people putting up bootleg and demo recordings of popular artists on digital services and making money from it in the process. In some cases they even uploading fake recordings which somehow manage to get onto the artists homepage.
Actually that homepage part crap needs to be sorted by Apple and Spotify quickly because how the fuck can you fuck that up. Too much reliance on algorithms and not enough human eyes and ears.
I got a song in my Spotify Release Radar from Tommy Lee and instead of seeing the aged, white tattooed T-Bone, I see a young black rapper. Same deal with names like Dio, Ratt, Rush, Badlands, UFO, Keel, Vandenberg, Cinderella, Icon, KISS and Journey.

If you live along the Atlantic Coast of Florida, your life is interrupted for eight months every year. Any condo, house or trailer within walking distance of a beach lives under a strict ordinance. Florida’s state Game and Wild Life Department restricts outdoor landscaping lights of any kind. If you are wondering why, this law has been enacted to save the lives of future sea turtles.
