According to Spotify’s new anti-hate policy, the company will be enacting certain barriers of discretion again individuals in question for hateful or heinous crimes. Per the brand,

“When an artist or creator does something that is especially harmful or hateful (for example, violence against children and sexual violence), it may affect the ways we work with or support that artist or creator,”

Spotify goes on to explain:

"In the case of R Kelly and XXXTentacion, who have both been accused (but not convicted) of some pretty heinous crimes, it means their music will no longer be available on Spotify’s playlists, like Rap Caviar. However, you will still be able to find R and X’s music in the search."

This did not sit well with XXXtentacion who went on to whistle-blow on others as a reaction to the news. Check out his response below:
