This article has been imported from chorus.fm for discussion. All of the forum rules still apply. Tom Warren, writing at The Verge: Spotify is getting ready to enable a block feature in its apps to mute artists you don’t want to hear from. Spotify is currently testing the “don’t play this artist” feature in its latest iOS app, and The Verge has been able to test the new block functionality ahead of its release soon. The feature simply lets you block an entire artist from playing, so that songs from the artist will never play from a library, playlist, chart list, or even radio stations on Spotify.

I wonder how confused Spotify will be when I shoot down all the crap it thinks I like because my kids sabotage my account almost daily.
Ha. Thankfully it's not that bad. It's very random though. Spotify thinks my top tracks for 2018 include NSYNC's Bye Bye Bye, Party Hard by Andrew WK, and High Hopes by P!ATD. There are worst lists of course. The worst is when the cleaning lady has Alexa play Kenny Chesney at my house once a month for 4+ hours. That really fucked with my profile. First world problems, I know, I know.
I can get down with this! What do you guys think about the new artist page layout?? I like the old version waaaaay better.
fucking thank goodness. it is good for problematic artists obv but really i am just so glad i will be able to block all the shitty pop punk that gets forced into my Discover Weekly and Release Radar. i did nothing to deserve this fate
I can’t stand it haha. I like the bigger artist picture and the follow button being up top, but I hate the rest.
I also hate that they finally separated EPs from albums and now that’s back to being combined under the new garbage discography page.
Would love this for Apple Music. Might write up a mock list for when the feature comes, headed by Chris Brown’s name.
