It has not been the most flattering PR year for Spotify. Since last spring, popular bands like Deerhoof, Massive Attack, Sylvan Esso, King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard, Hotline TNT, and countless more have removed their music from the platform, with many of those artists calling out Spotify CEO Daniel Ek’s investment in the AI military company Helsing. Then, Spotify doubled down on the ICE recruitment advertisements they began running on its free ad-supported tier, prompting even more artists to flee in protest. A lot of Spotify subscribers are fleeing, too, and Apple Music even launched a feature to make the transition easier for ex-Spotify listeners seeking an alternative. Now, Spotify has announced some competitive updates, including more in-depth song credits.
