I WANT TO BLACKLIST AN ARTIST! ( So they never get played in a radio or recommended again )

[stavros1980]

There is a Artist that is always played in a radio when I let it play, I have pushed the minus sign on each song but 2 or 3 tracks later the radio plays another of their songs. 

I don't know why, I hate this artist with a passion and have never listen to a song the whole way through.

I think it is because Spotify has worked out that I am gay man and other gay men like this artist so I should like them as well. However, the artist is not my taste in music, I like rock music and they are the most generic dance music.

I want the option to blacklist this artist so they are never played again in a radio or recommend to me. I want to stop having to run back to the computer every 20 minutes to click the minus sign again, when I am cleaning the house.

Thanks

Hey @stavros1980, 

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. We moved your post from the Ideas board to the relevant Help board, where it fits better.

No worries, you can mute the artist you don't like so it won't be played again. From the mobile app, head to the artist's page > tap on the 3 dot menu > select "Don't play this". This will affect all your devices. 

Take into account that the Don't play this feature only prevents the songs by the blocked artist from being played. They might still show up on playlists and even in your recommendations, but the songs should be skipped. Currently, there's no way to visually "hide" the songs by the artist.

Hope this helps. If you need a hand with anything else, the Community is here for you.
