Big L - 98 freestyle removed from spotify

Big L - 98 freestyle removed from spotify

Already unhappy about the removal of the original Jaylib - The red over some petty copyright claim that should have been sorted years ago, and now this. For some reason, the clip of the 98 freestyle recorded on The Stretch Armstrong/Bobbito Show Has been removed from spotify and subsequently is unavailable in my songs. I just want to know why this has happened as there seems to be absolutely no reason as to why this would be removed by spotify.

Hello:

 

All music on the Spotify service is available by license from the labels, artists and/or their management. Music sometimes leaves and then comes back, then sometimes content licenses comes to an end and does not come back for a long while.

 

Spotify wants all the world's music, and they're working hard on making this happen for you. However sometimes agreements can’t be reached with the artist or label or a change may happen in music ownership.

Spotify adds thousands of albums and artists are added every day. If you can’t find an artist you’re looking for, they may appear (or reappear) soon. In the meantime, feel free to contact the artist or their label to ask when they plan to be on Spotify.

 

I personally have content I would like to see added as well, sometimes that content shows up and sometimes the content I want does not or has not showed up yet. You might try and use a second hand CD store and/or online used CD service for the release, as it reads from your post this is content that will from time to time have issues being on streaming services?
