Just look how sloppy and unethical these people are. Not only is the company that conducted this sham "report" partnered with Cardi B's agent, they're literally buddy-buddy with David Wander, the chief digital officer at Jay-Z's Roc Nation. This is clearly a targeted opposition research dressed up as "analysis"
Why would Nicki Minaj (someone with more than 300 million followers across all social media platforms, 26 million on Twitter alone) ever need a bot farm to boost her content?
Really disgraceful that Politico would publish something like this without scrutiny of the source's biases
