Variety reports:
British synth-pop group the Pet Shop Boys are the latest to call out Drake for allegedly not getting permission to use their lyrics in his newly-dropped “For All the Dogs” record.
“West End Girls” was the first single the duo — comprised of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe — released. It became an instant hit in both the United States and the U.K. after it appeared as part of their 1986 record “Please.”
As of now, the only credited producers on the track are BNYX®, Boi-1da, Fierce, Coleman, Maneesh, Harley Arsenault and JDolla, and the only credited writer is Drake.
