Looks like music isn’t the thing Spotify is interested in.

A 3 second fact check says nope, that's not a thing

It won’t effect Neil Young’s bank balance and he stood by his principles and I respect that.

neil young stinks

Again proving that it’s more about the $$$, $100M in this case. Another reason to not support Spotify. Hope other artists can show as much integrity as Neil Young.

Maybe Joe is joking? Or he is a joke👎

Good on you, Neil, for putting people before profit. I would normally say that Spotify have the morals of dogs, but, then I'd be insulting dogs. Hope they get what they deserve for making this potentially death dealing decision. 💩

Can say with some pride, it seems, wouldnt have clue who the fuck Joe Rogan is. I do know who Neil Young is. So, if this dweeb posted his antivax shit on Facebook or here, it would get taken down but is allowed on Spotify . Seems I was ahead of my time removing that ap too.

Now there's even more reason to never use this thing I was never going to use in the first place

This shows where Spotify sits in regard to miss information.

Neil is no longer rockin in the free world I guess

Neil Young had polio when he was a kid before a polio vaccine was available. He understands well the value the polio vaccine had preventing other children from suffering like he did. Doing the right thing despite taking a financial hit. Now that's real integrity.

How about everyone boycotting Spotify? Or is it too big to fail?

Let’s see how Spotify feel when they get large group of more profitable artists following the lead of Neil Young.

Not happy Spotify I thought you people were about the music but you've obviously moved on since you sucked us all in.

Who had been following this? Am I getting my CDs back out?

And they picked. Joe interests this generation and Neil is an artifact in the museum of forgotten memories.

Lynard Skynard was right about him

Asked didn’t demand didn’t give ultimatums simply asked … Bravo for the only SINGULAR 😒 Artist with the balls to honour his convictions 😐 Spotify JoeRogan NeilYoung Facts

Axed? He literally asked to be removed and thanked Warner afterwards for their support. After a shit headline line that, I’m not reading it. A few others have left as well.

Wait, Neil Young's still alive?

Not much of a surprise, money over substance.

Good! Neil should have stayed in his own lane!
