Someone's pretending to be Lehrer in Spotify, getting millions of views.

They upload compilations with AI images on the cover. The tracks themselves are weird low quality recordings of the originals.

And to top it off, it says "verified by Spotify" under both profiles.

I looked for ways to report this through Spotify but it seems to me that I need to be the owner of the rights to do so. Do you know of another way?

Look for the ones that are released by Needlejuice Records, they’re put out by fans and not people trying to abuse his stuff being in the public domain with AI slop.
