Joe Rogan was accused of spreading misinformation regarding the pandemic in his podcast episodes, which aired on Spotify. People criticized Rogan for not doing his due diligence while researching the topic. Famous musician Neil Young protested against Rogan by removing his music from Spotify earlier this year.

This inspired the famous music supergroup – Crosby, Stills & Nash to remove their music as well. The group members – David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash – are good friends with Neil Young and have produced countless songs together. But according to Billboard, their music is available on Spotify as of July 2.

This comes after the comments made by them in February 2022. The group commented, “We support Neil, and we agree with him that there is dangerous disinformation being aired on Spotify’s Joe Rogan podcast. While we always value alternate points of view, knowingly spreading disinformation during this global pandemic has deadly consequences. Until real action is taken to show that a concern for humanity must be balanced with commerce, we don’t want our music — or the music we made together — to be on the same platform.”
