[All Platforms][Subscription] Acid Rap by Chance the Rapper - Canceling subscription

[All Platforms][Subscription] Acid Rap by Chance the Rapper - Canceling subscription

Can't believe this album isn't available... There have been several songs and albums I've been trying to play on Spotify only to learn they're not available. To be honest this one is kind of the last straw and I'll be cancelling my subscription. Will be moving to youtube since they have pretty much everything. Just wanted to give feedback. Thanks!

That album appears to be not available in any regions at the moment.

 

The availability of music on Spotify is up to the artist and their music label.

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. Sometimes the music is only available in certain countries, while access is blocked to others. Sometimes the album or song will be unavailable temporary, and come back again later.

I think that Spotify should add the "Acid Rap" album by Chance the Rapper. Spotify should do everything they can to get this album, as it is a quintessential album in the development of rap. It is award-winning and deserving of a rightful place on Spotify.

Hi @thechelseasmith and @kjeagle_3, thanks for your feedback! I've moved this post to the Content Questions board, where we can discuss the available Spotify library as well as the Spotify-curated playlists. In reference to the request for Chance the Rapper, as @user-removed explained, missing or unavailable music is always a decision by the artist/label to withhold the content from Spotify. Sometimes it's temporarily unavailable while they sort out legal issues or correct metadata, in which case it'll be back up as soon as they resubmit it to Spotify. 
While it might be a good idea to contact the label directly and ask why the music isn't on Spotify, you can also fill out this form
to let Spotify staff know of your interest. You might also be interested in supporting this idea, which suggests a simpler method for requesting albums missing from Spotify.
