"It has yet to be revealed if Young is just pulling his music from the Amazon Music streaming platform, or if he'll be removing his physical products from the store as well. Of course, this isn't the first time Young has pulled his music from a platform. It was back in 2022 when he demanded that his music be removed from Spotify over misinformation about vaccines spread on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast."
"The time is here. FORGET AMAZON. Soon my music will not be there. It is easy to buy local. Support your community. Go to the local store. Don't go back to the big corporations who have sold out America. We all have to give up something to save America from the Corporate Control Age it is entering. They need you to buy from them. Don't."
Neil Young announced plans to pull his music from Amazon and publicly urged a boycott of Amazon and Whole Foods, urging people to buy local and buy direct. He accused Jeff Bezos of supporting the government rather than ordinary people and warned against returning to big corporations that have "sold out America." The scope of the removal—whether limited to Amazon Music streaming or including physical products—remains unclear. Young previously demanded removal from Spotify in 2022 over vaccine misinformation on The Joe Rogan Experience and later returned after changes. He also halted Facebook activity over reported issues with Meta's AI chatbots.
