Veteran musicians Neil Young and Joni Mitchell renounced Spotify last week after accusing the streaming giant of spreading misinformation about COVID-19.
So why do some of their songs still pop up on the platform?
Days after the folk-rock contemporaries announced plans to yank their catalogs from Spotify, several albums and songs by Young, 76, and Mitchell, 78, remain on their artist profiles. It appears that slim to none of the lingering tracks, however, were distributed by Reprise or its parent label Warner Records — which supported the singer-songwriters' move to boycott Spotify.
