Neil Young reportedly demanded that his music be removed from Spotify due to vaccine disinformation shared by podcaster Joe Rogan on the streaming platform.
"They can have Rogan or Young. Not both," Young wrote in a since-deleted open letter to his manager and record label that was posted to his website on Monday.
NBC has not seen the original post and it is unclear why it was removed from Young's website. A link to the post labeled "A-Message-To-Spotify," currently directs users to a blank page.
A representative for Young did not immediately respond to NBC News' request for comment. But his manager Frank Gironda confirmed its authenticity to The Daily Beast, saying in a statement that the issue is something "that's really important to Neil. He's very upset about this disinformation."

“Neil Young Wants His Music Off Spotify Over Joe Rogan’s Vaccine ‘Misinformation’”
I want Neil Young off the planet for his terminal vapidity!
Ever hear the inane lyrics this pi$$ pot has has insulted our intelligence with? Nobody has wanted to hear from him since BEFORE Woodstock!
SEND HIM TO THE UKRAINE TO NEGOTIATE PEACE!!!
DIPWAD!!!
I seriously have never gotten why anyone would think so highly of Neil Young. His music is depressing and his voice sounds like someone who just woke up with a nasty hangover.
This is to get attention and get people to listen to his music. Sorry Neil, your time has come and gone. You’re a has been and now, when you die, you’ll be remembered as an old asshat.
Never liked this little creep. His sheet music belongs in the toilet paper or cat pan liner isle.
Keep on posin’ in the free world...
Who cares what this idiot “has been” thinks!!!!
Even though I like his older music I keep in mind he is just a musician. I don't take history lessons from him (EX. Ohio or Cortez the killer) as he is obviously ignorant on these matters. I like his non social commentary songs and thought he was great in CSN&Y.
Neil who?
Is he famous for something?
Bye Felicia!
And the whole spotify community goes “Who?”
But seriously, who the hell cares what Neil Diamond says, feel, or wants?
Really!
