    I keep thinking about Kendrick Lamar actively campaigning (and succeeding) in getting R. Kelly and XXXTentacles put back on Spotify last year in response to the #MuteRKelly movement. There is complicit silence (shout out to Questlove) and then there is active endorsement.

        May 2018: "Spotify recently rolled out a new hate content policy. R. Kelly and XXXTentacion were the first two artists affected by the policy, though at the urging of Kendrick Lamar, Spotify is already amending its stance.”https://consequenceofsound.net/2018/05/kendrick-lamar-spotify-hate-content-policy/ …

        No Tde (Kendrick’s label)was supporting r Kelly not getting pulled from Spotify because they have a whole campaign thing on not having censorship on music

        Isn't it that someone that represents multiple artists, including Kendrick Lamar (as one of the artists they represent) called to make the change? Although in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really make a difference, because it's really not that hard for (cont.)

        For Kendrick to publicly denounce R. Kelly and the other one.
