Neil Young has urged Spotify employees to quit the company in the wake of the fallout involving Joe Rogan, which has spiralled from the podcaster's use of his platform to air Covid-19 misinformation to his earlier, frequent use of a racial slur on his show. Young is now targeting Spotify CEO Daniel Ek as the company's chief problem.
"To the musicians and creators in this world, I say this: You must be able to find a better place than Spotify to be the home of your art," Young wrote in a post on his Neil Young Archives site. "To the workers at Spotify, I say Daniel Ek is your problem - not Joe Rogan. Ek pulls the strings. Get out of the place before it eats up your soul. The goals stated by Ek are about numbers - not art, not creativity."
