India Arie says she's pulling her music from Spotify over Joe Rogan's comments on race

India Arie is the latest prominent artist to announce she'll be removing her music from Spotify because of Joe Rogan

India Arie is the latest prominent artist to announce she'll be removing her music from Spotify because it platforms Joe Rogan, a podcast host who has repeatedly made false claims about the Covid-19 vaccine. Arie's departure from the service is over a different set of comments Rogan made.

The R&B singer said in an Instagram post that Rogan's"language around race" was"problematic," referring to a recent interview on Rogan's podcast in which he made offensive comments about African nations and said it was"weird" to use the term"Black" as an identifier. "Neil Young opened a door that I MUST walk through," Arie wrote on Monday.
