Young had earlier released a letter addressed to his manager and record label, Warner Music Group, demanding that Spotify no longer carry his music because he said Rogan spreads misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines.

Neil Young's music is being removed from Spotify's streaming service after the singer-songwriter objected to his songs playing on the same platform that offers Joe Rogan's podcast, the company and the musician said on Wednesday .

On Wednesday, the Heart Of Gold and Rocking In The Free World singer thanked his record label for"standing with me in my decision to pull all my music from Spotify", and he encouraged other musicians to do the same. The Swedish company said it worked to balance"both safety for listeners and freedom for creators" and had removed more than 20,000 podcast episodes related to COVID-19 in accordance with its"detailed content policies".

Rogan, 54, is the host of The Joe Rogan Experience, the top-rated podcast on Spotify, which holds exclusive rights to the programme.
