Obamas Prepare to Ditch Spotify amid Joe Rogan Scandal
2022-02-05
[NN] The former president and former first lady are said to be frustrated with the slow pace of development at Spotify amid music stars making their exit from the platform amid the "woke" backlash.

The Obamas are now looking at new deals with other companies, according to sources.

As The Daily Mail reported:

The duo’s Higher Ground Audio company signed a three-year deal with Spotify in June 2019, but sources say it can be hard to get a show green-lit at the Swedish music streamer.

Moreover, according to Vanity Fair, the Obamas are more interested in putting forth "young new voices" rather than carrying shows themselves, which first reported rumblings of the couple’s dissatisfaction.

#3  Since David Crosby is trending over demanding that his music be pulled from Spotify, I’d like to point out that he sold his catalog last year and doesn’t own or control his music catalog anymore.
