Accountability in Music • Page 250

Their thing the past few months has been all "anti call-out culture" so I'm not sure it would matter, although I'd certainly like to believe it would.

 

F*ntano is good now?

 

I'm confused what he initially did wrong

 

Checks ... yeah his podcast with and praise for this misogynistic pos (to put it mildly) is still up:

 

Oh, that's disappointing. Haven't been following them super closely of late

 

Didn't he do a podcast episode with Sam Hyde or something? He also did some comedy videos that were problematic a while ago but he's not an Alt-Right guy or anything.

He's just annoying and not very good at music criticism. Despite this, a generation of Redditors with identical tastes in music view him as the new Lester Bangs.

Edit: Oh yeah he was friends with Argon. Yeah that's fucked up.

 

Yep.

 

I can't come up with a good joke, but then I realized "generation of redditors" is funny by itself.

 

Thought so! That was from the era when ol' Melon was trying to be the Reddit Culture/Humanoid Fruit Joe Rogan (barf) and it failed spectacularly. He's a dingus.

 

What a fun corner to want to be on.

 

Not to mention all those shitty “comedy” videos he had to scrub from the internet after he was found out

 

Took them long enough

 

Is Dahvie even making any or enough money these days to live?

 

Hope not.

 

He lives with his parents

 

Update... nvm!

 

They remove music because of its content on Spotify? This is the first time I've heard of that.

 

They tried to do it before but they mainly went after black artists

 

“The content of the songs” yeah ok

 

Yeah those songs contain a piece of shit’s voice get em outta here!

 

It would be cynical to say BOTDF's songs were pulled because he doesn't have a lobby, but there would be some truth to that too.

After BOTDF, what non-rap/R&B artist has songs that are as bad / violent / mysogynist as BOTDF's? I'm not looking for anyone to do research on this if you don't already know, I'm seriously wondering if Spotify may be able to be persuaded to remove other artists under the same grounds. If not, this may just be a way for Spotify to gain some PR points by removing an artist that relatively few people were listening to and that no one but the BOTDF's possie would complain about.

 

I think the thing that separates BOTDF is the target demographic being young kids/the fact that they’d most likely be popping up in playlists for young kids because of the algorithm

 

I think for sure that one of the reasons it's taken off while someone xxxtentacion or R. Kelly is the lobby for these artists. Top Top Dawg's CEO threatened to pull all of TDE's material off of it if they didn't put xxx back up. That would have been a huge blow. I just wish Spotify would have some consistency with this.
