Rocker says the comedian’s popular podcast on the streaming service is presenting „grossly unfactual information“ about COVID-19.
Neil Young’s music will be removed from Spotify at his request, following the veteran rock star’s protest over the streaming service airing a popular podcast that featured a guest criticized for spreading COVID misinformation. Spotify, in a statement on Wednesday, said that it regretted Young’s decision, “but hope to welcome him back soon.” It wasn’t immediately clear when his music will actually be taken down. “I realized I could not continue to support Spotify’s life-threatening misinformation to the music loving people,” Young said in a statement. Young had asked his management and record company publicly on Monday to remove his music from the popular streaming service, where he had more than 6 million monthly listeners, according to his Spotify home page.
