You should be able to block certain artists or groups so you never get recommended their music

So i have seen a couple iterations of this idea being knocked around, and spotify even implemented something like this, but it's only for albums or specific songs. I just dont think thats broad enough.

Like, say if you just absolutely did not want to listen a certain artist, and they are constantly popping up on your recommended feed, or in the play more section of a certain playlist, it can get really frustrating.

I don't want to have to go through and individually block every album/song said artist has, especially if they've been around for a while. It would be far more efficient to simply have a "block" or "don't like this" feature for artists or groups as a whole.

Hey there @JSalvato,

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community.

No worries, you can head over to the Artist's profile > 3 dots > Don't play this. This should block all content from that artist on all your devices.

Note that if a song is featuring that artists it might still be played.

If you need help with anything else, just let us know.
