Spotify employees seem to have no issue with songs about killing police, assaulting women, bashing gays etc. Just listen to a mainstream rapper like Eminem and there is plenty to get offended about, if they cared too.
A tame lyric for example:
“But I may fight for gay rights, especially if that dyke is more of a knockout than Janay Rice/Play nice? Bitch I’ll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice in broad daylight in the plain sight of the elevator surveillance/’Til her head is banging on the railing, then celebrate with the Ravens.”
- markdown 5y agoSome art is supposed to offend. If you want your antivaxxer theories, bigfoot stories, and moon landing conspiracies on Spotify, sing a song.
- astrange 5y agoI think plenty of people have tried to cancel Eminem already. Mainly nobody tries to do it lately because he's gone soft and nobody likes his new music. It's still technical but feels like a dad trying to hang out with the cool kids.
