Modern Ecstasy2 1,395 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Like I don’t want to be an asshole but this kind of sucks. I can’t go a day without listening to my music “Delete this thread that person is not Gaga he is a hot blonde twink” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebit 6,071 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I hope they and huge corporations like them are making a sizeable donation to a bail fund. (Also glad I actually bought the album so I can still listen to it). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edengowon 9,643 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 music is the only thing helping me keep my calm at the moment. this is an incredibly stupid move that won't help at all. maybe if they actually donated or did something instead the artist formerly known as melancholia Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf 1,328 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 This is performative activism. I don't see the point beyond spreading the message, which they could do with other means. Couldn't these large companies just donate bail money for Black protesters who are detained? Or something of the sort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiskoBaby 1,929 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 How is shutting down a streaming service going to help anything? I wanna stay in and listen to music, not go out and see all this looting and rioting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GipJo 2,563 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Why tho? Protest can use some music energy, and how can shuting down streaming service benefit BLM? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality 65,752 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 If y'all want to stream it, go listen on YouTube or something. I'm completely fine with this. 🃏🖤👹 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siena 4,879 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I understand what they’re trying to do but no matter the situation, most people use music as a way to heal and cope with hard times. I honestly don’t see how this is even doing anything to help the situation. Music has had zero effect on anything that’s happening so I don’t get how taking away Spotify for a day is going to help at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0436 10,215 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 But that silences the music of the oppressed black community though? I thought it should be about keeping their voice alive not silencing it! I thought maybe playlists of black music on the front page of Spotify would shine a light more as well as Spotify donating to so-called bail funds.
