Neil Young wants his music off of Spotify.

In a since-deleted letter to his management team and record label, Young demanded that they remove his music from the service saying:

“I am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines – potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them. Please act on this immediately today and keep me informed of the time schedule. I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform. They can have [Joe] Rogan or Young. Not both.”

Last month, 270 doctors, physicians, and science educators signed an open letter asking Spotify to stop allowing Rogan to spread baseless claims about vaccines on The Joe Rogan Experience.

Do you think Joe Rogan should be removed from Spotify?
