That only says spotify.com is using GCP's DNS but not necessarily for hosting?

EDIT: I was wrong, as pointed out by shizcakes.

That's not what that says. It's doing a whois on the hosting IP address, not the DNS service.

While we are at it, looks like spotify.com is using a mix of NS1 and GCP for DNS.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns1.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns2.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns3.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns4.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a1.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a2.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a3.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a4.googledomains.com.

How can you name your service NS1 but then not use the ns1. subdomain for the first nameserver. SMH
