Spotify reportedly pays artists an average of $.0038 per stream. Other musicians have since joined in on Young’s calls to boycott Spotify, and are asking users to support other platforms that pay artists more per stream, like Apple Music or TIDAL.
Not long after Young made his ultimatum, Joni Mitchell and a slew of other major artists joined Young in pulling their music from Spotify to protest what they say is Rogan’s consistent spreading of COVID vaccine misinformation. Here are the latest developments in the seemingly never-ending saga between Joe Rogan and Spotify. 25, and in the weeks since then, the conflict between Spotify, Joe Rogan, various music artists, and the public at large, has taken a series of twists and turns that have made it a rare mainstay in the 24 hour news cycle. Neil Young reportedly read that letter, and subsequently wrote his own letter to his management team and record label with an ultimatum: “I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform. And not only do I want my checks, I deserve my checks.That changed last month, after a group of more than 260 doctors, academics, and scientists signed an open letter urging Spotify to do more about what they say is several instances of coronavirus vaccine misinformation Rogan shared on the podcast, which has more than 11 million daily listeners. “So when those two things shifted, I put my music back up.

Finally, the artist gets paid, and then the songwriter gets paid.Īlthough she protested for a year, the “Brown Skin” singer’s catalog is back on Spotify as she has over one million monthly listeners. This leaves the artist and songwriters to get little to nothing.
Record labels have joined forces with streaming services and decided who would get paid what. India goes on to explain that streaming platforms like Spotify have made life harder for songwriters and artists. they’re giving this man who uses racist language $200 million-for me, my dignity could not stand it.” It was in protest……And so knowing that Black music does the most streams, streaming has deeply affected people’s ability to make a living as songwriters…. “I pulled it off in the name of my own dignity. In an interview with Billboard, the 47-year-old artist explains why she protested Spotify.
