Spotify Technology SA is in the process of removing Neil Young’s music, according to people familiar with the matter, as the folk-rock star isn’t wavering in his objections to Joe Rogan’s podcast.
The “Heart of Gold” and “Harvest Moon” singer earlier this week penned an open letter to his manager and label from the service, saying it is spreading fake information about Covid-19 vaccines through Mr. Rogan’s show. “They can have Rogan or Young. Not both,” he wrote.
and on the opposite spectrum there is Van 'Conspiracy Theory' Morrison.
I don't give a hoot.
I guess this means he won't be a guest on the Joe Rogan Podcast any time soon..
Easy decision: remove Spotify
✌️🤟
Y’all don’t get, do you? it is a matter of principle for Neilyoung. The other side does not know meaning of the word
And 5 minutes after all his music is deleted from Spotify he will return to obscurity and no one will ask of him again. 6 months down the track when everyone has moved in he will reinstate his music to Spotify on the quiet. These people never change.
acaldwellwsj Why are people shocked to see someone choose principles over money? That is what ESG investing is all about.
I’ve listened to Spotify for years - love it. Every so often an artist pulls their music - it’s like a drop in the ocean - the space quickly gets taken up by someone else.
Smart man!
I guess 'Old man' 'Rock'n in the free world' Consequences. Say good by to one of your last revenue streams
ByronYork American man don’t need him around anyhow.
Does anyone actually think Neil Young is qualified to determine what constitutes misinformation concerning covid? Prior to the 2020 elections 24 'scientists' signed a letter stating that saying covid came from a Chinese lab was a conspiracy theory. They have since retracted
Joe shut up
What kind of an expert is Joe Rogan? Did he even finish high school?
cancelspotify
ByronYork Who gives a shit?
Glad I listened yesterday.
Not that great a musician anyway
I’ll miss it!!!
ByronYork Will he rethink whether he was misinformed? Will he at least consider that others with different views may me reasonable people?
if I didn't have Apple Music free with my phone plan, I'd definitely pay to use Spotify. glad they chose Rogan over this whiny brat. if you don't like someone, don't pay attention to them.
Did a guy who gets 6 million listens a month on spotify really expect them to take down Rogan who gets 200 million a month? LOL k
And no one noticed
ByronYork Neil who?
I am pretty sure that there are 0 fans of this guy in Luxembourg where Spotify is based. Also expecting them to care about American politics is bit naive. They stream and that is it, Neil is free to start his own podcast and invite people with their own opinions.
Who is he? Wasn’t he a QB for the Niners
When will Joe interview Neil?
Other artists should step up
'Spotify chooses to continue to spew Covid disinformation resulting in thousands of Americans dying every day' There, I fixed your headline since your paper lacks editors.
😂😂😂
Fine. I don’t use Spotify anyway. I buy vinyl like a proper music owner
So long, farewell and goodbye.
Anthony Good. Spotify better not give in to blackmail. Free speech matters
Love Neil Young! We need more people putting values over their profits. This is awesome👏👏
I love Neil Young but he’s losing it
Joe who? Don't know the guy. 😐
Sometimes when you give people an ultimatum they take you up on it.
ByronYork So what
LOL BYE!
ByronYork Another tree has fallen in a forest with no one there to hear it.
He's not dead? I think I just lost a bet.
A longtime musical legend and a lie spreading rac!st Podcaster and they choose the latter. Spotify we see what you're about
He’s got his own service which is better than Spotify, so he’ll be just fine
Neil who?
The most headlines he’s seen in 40 years.
ByronYork Don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out!
big ups to Apple music tho
