A lot of musicians are azzhats. I listen to some music that I choose to listen to, because I enjoy what i hear. I don’t listen to what I don’t want to hear. I just change the station, change the stream. Don’t care if any of them give an opinion, that’s not why i listen. And whenever one gives an opinion I disagree with, I raise a middle finger, and change the station.
**********************
Agree totally with what you say.If I stopped listening to every artist that had a different opinion than me, i would be in the hell of having to listen to Lee Greenwood sing I’m proud to be an American for the millionth time.
It’s not that Young said something I don’t like, it’s that he’s basically advocating for censorship.

lets boycott eric clapton, van morrison...

or maybe support free speech.
*******************
We do support free speech, that’s why I can’t understand your schizo point. If Young was just asking people to basically boycott Rogan by not listening to him, that’s fine. But he was trying to silence him.

Well, apparently his leverage was zero, cause Rogan’s still standing.

Afraid nobody around here
Understands my potato

I couldn’t imagine a more bizarre collaboration than Neil Young and Devo, but it happened.

well he’s got a few more people who will now listen to his music once again- big deal- he’s accomplished what he set out to doo doo- make himself somewhat ‘relevant’ again because folks were just losing interest in him for years-

Guess he had to make a stink to make himself 1/2 way noticeable again-

Kids who use Spotify do not know Neil Young or Joni and those of us who know Neil Young and Joni don’t know how to use Spotify. Ironic right?

Not sure that is true. The Spotify stats suggest that the vast majority of music being streamed on Spotify is >30 yrs old. So while Spotify's user demographics my be 'young-ish' the music that they are listening to belongs to their parents' generation (and sometimes grandparents).

I haven't been into Joe Rogan, but something I read said his podcast was Spotify's biggest seller.

Neil Young just drummed up some serious publicity for himself (and Joe Rogan).
After something like four decades of no media mention at all, he's on the front page.

Next:
I'm going to be checking out Joe Rogan very soon. Thanks Neil.

all the guy did was disagree with joe rogan and pull his music from spotify. cant understand the hate here

No, Neil Young didn't just disagree with Joe Rogan. He tried to have Spotify remove Joe Rogan in order to support Pfascists committing crimes against humanity with illegal diktats for the Jim Jones Jab.
