Neil Young Won't Share a Streaming Service With Joe Rogan

Neil Young has announced that he won’t allow his music to be streamed on Spotify because he of the covid and medical misinformation that they help to spread. He posted a letter to his management team saying the following:

“I am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines – potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them,” he wrote. “Please act on this immediately today and keep me informed of the time schedule.”

“I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform,” he continued. “They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.”

We can also assume from this statement Neil isn’t a Packers fan.

Damon Albarn Sez Taylor Swift Doesn't Write Her Own Songs

In an interview with the LA Times, Damon Albarn had this to say about Taylor Swift:

She(Taylor Swift) doesn’t write her own songs.

(On her being a co-writer) That doesn’t count. I know what co-writing is. Co-writing is very different to writing. I’m not hating on anybody, I’m just saying there’s a big difference between a songwriter and a songwriter who co-writes. Doesn’t mean that the outcome can’t be really great. And some of the greatest singers — I mean, Ella Fitzgerald never wrote a song in her life. When I sing, I have to close my eyes and just be in there. I suppose I’m a traditionalist in that sense. A really interesting songwriter is Billie Eilish and her brother. I’m more attracted to that than to Taylor Swift. It’s just darker — less endlessly upbeat. Way more minor and odd. I think she’s exceptional.

Well, Damon, get ready for a concept album aimed directly at you. Maybe you can get a co-writing credit?

Peter Dinklage Slams Snow White Remake

Disney is doing a live action remake of Snow White and Dinklage finds the idea disgraceful. On the WTF podcast, he called out the hypocrisy of being woke by casting a Latina as Snow White while having no problem remaking a “fucking backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together.” He added, “what the fuck are you doing man? Have I done nothing to advance the cause from my soap box? I guess I’m not loud enough. I don’t know which studio that is but they were so proud of it. All love and respect to the actress and all the people who thought they were doing the right thing. But I’m just like, what are you doing?”

You didn’t book it I guess?
