The streaming music platform faced controversy after Joe Rogan reportedly expressed his thoughts about the pandemic and the COVID-19 vaccine on several episodes of his podcast. Several artists have removed their entire music catalog and asked for the boycott of the platform.
On Sunday, a spokesperson from the couple’s Archwell Foundation said the couple expressed their concerns regarding the content Spotify allows on their platform.”Last April, our co-founders began expressing concerns to our partners at Spotify about the all too real consequences of COVID-19 misinformation on its platform. We have continued to express our concerns to Spotify to ensure changes to its platform are made to help address this public health crisis,” the statement reads.
