Speaking to Spotify employees, Young said: "I say Daniel Ek is your big problem - not Joe Rogan. Get out of that place before it eats up your soul. The only goals stated by Ek are numbers, not art, not creativity."
He also encouraged musicians and other artists to take their content elsewhere, while asking consumers to find something better to support "with their monthly checks."
"To the musicians and creators in this world, I say this: You must be able to find a better place than Spotify to be the home of your art."
Young pulled his music from Spotify last month, inspiring a handful of other musicians and podcasters to do the same, and setting off a controversy over the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast that has lurched from COVID misinformation to Rogan's "language around race".
"In our communication age, misinformation is the problem. Ditch the misinformers," Young said in the statement.
Young also urged people to move their money out of multinational banks JPMorgan, Citigroup, Bank of America and Wells Fargo , slamming them as "damage causers" for their work financing fossil fuel companies.

Aaron King
Weirdly half based. Anti-freedom but fucking over the global financials would actually hurt the globohomo communist push.
Kevin Lopez

Carson Cooper
This is good we need a new start on music, everything new sucks. Get the shit of the air.
Whats wrong with his face? It looks like someone with Down's Syndrome had a car tire run over it.
Samuel Rivera
I'll quit my job if this commie kike millionaire will sign an agreement stating he'll match my current wages until such time as I find suitable reemployment.
Aaron Jackson

James Allen
>millionaire tells wage slaves to leave their only source of income
Jaxson Johnson

David Taylor

Angel Price
> Mister Hat says quit your jerb!
Jackson Williams
>let me shill against GMOs >btw, get the mRNA therapeutic that turns you into a GMO
Hunter Walker
Reminder, like all boomers who pretended to be against it for their own gain, Neil Young is just a corporate shill.
I’m assuming Young is about to get the muzzle for the commentary on (((banks)))
Luis Fisher
Then >Hey man, the system is corrupt and sick man. We need to fight the power Now, under the same system >Oh man I love the system, get vaxxed chuds. And slowly I began to hate.
Lucas Torres
Zoomers love Neil Young. Joe Bogan is fuck.
Christian Cox
He's a delusional retard. Will forever wine about whatever platform his music is on if someone doesn't share an identical opinion. Just let him delete himself from existence.
Evan Taylor
>Boomer past his prime still thinks he's important Lmao
Nicholas Hughes

Jayden Wright

Daniel Diaz
Guess that's why he didn't mention, Blackrock lmao.
Lincoln Ward
>COVID misinformation >from the fucking person who invented mRNA vaccines That's like telling Henry Ford that he knows nothing about cars. Who writes this garbage?
Brayden Hughes
That's nothing 5TB external drives are pretty cheap, get one and load it up
I actually like Neil Youngs music and I’m a zoomer. I pretended to be into folk music to get my high school crush to sleep with me which worked but then I started liking some of the music. I also pretended to like country music to get with a girl and slowly started to like some of it too kek.
Jason Rivera

Grayson Hughes
Neil Young's on our side now. He just wrote a new song

Luis King
My point was to have a backup copy because shit happens.
Ian Hughes
He does look a little odd. Not going to deny that.
