Spotify readies artist block feature

Spotify readies artist block feature

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.

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.

The block feature works on songs by an individual artist, but it doesn’t currently apply to tracks that an artist is featured on.

Spotify originally decided not to offer blocking “after serious consideration” back in 2017 but has now seemingly reversed that decision.
