I personally prefer ViMusic or just downloading my music. Spotify also censors a lot of songs.

They censor songs?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think if the lyrics are controversial enough they might be censored. If I recall the song Aarson by City Morgue is censored. That might be on the publisher though rather than Spotify because it seems pretty sporadic

Hmm is this different than having an explicit and non-explicit version of a song? Most of the time Spotify actually puts the non-explicit versions in their Release Radar/Discover Weekly playlists. At least for me.

I believe all they have is the non-explicit version.

Then you might be correct in this being a publisher thing.
