Neil Young is once again standing up for his values. Earlier this year, Young cut ties with Facebook, citing their “use of chatbots with children”. Now, it’s Amazon being cut off, according to Stereogum. 

“My decision comes as music services Apple and Amazon have started serving the same disinformation podcast features I had opposed at SPOTIFY,” Young wrote at the time. “I cannot just leave Apple and Amazon, like I did Spotify, because my music would have very little streaming outlet to music lovers at all, so I have returned to Spotify, in sincere hopes that Spotify sound quality will improve and people will be able to hear and feel all the music as we made it. Qobuz and Tidal, where my music is presented, are all High res as well.”

In his latest post on Neil Young Archives, Young announced that his music will soon be removed from Amazon. In the message, he urged his fans to boycott Amazon, noting Jeff Bezos’ support of Donald Trump’s administration, and encouraged people to support local businesses instead.

“FORGET AMAZON AND WHOLE FOODS. FORGET FACEBOOK,” begins Young’s message. “BUY LOCAL. BUY DIRECT. BEZOS SUPPORTS THIS GOVERNMENT. IT DOES NOT SUPPORT YOU OR ME.”

Young continues, 

“The time is here.

FORGET AMAZON.

Soon my music will not be there. It is easy to buy local. Support your community.

Go to the local store.

Don’t go back to the big corporations who have sold out America.

We all have to give up something to save America from the Corporate Control Age it is entering.

They need you to buy from them.

Don’t.

They shut down our government

your income

your safety

your family’s health security.

Take America Back

together, stop buying from the

big corporations

support local business.

Do the right thing. Show who you are.”

At this time it is unknown if Young is just removing his digital music library from Amazon Music or if he is taking his physical products off of Amazon as well.
