im tired of spotify showing me stuff i dont like, can i at least reject anything

[dannybruhphantom]

sometimes all i see on my homescreen is generic mainstream hood rap released in the last 5 years but thats NOT what i like! Your Favorite Artists only showed generic rappers who have significant chart success despite all their music sounding the same. same with Recommended Radio. all my niche mixes today are either rap or r&b and nothing alternative, just generic bull**bleep**! (i like CORPSE & blackbear who fall under alternative rap & alternative r&b respectively, i dont like DaBaby or Bryson Tiller who fall under generic rap & generic r&b respectively) the only stuff i got that doesnt appeal to the streets was edm but that doesnt matter cuz it gets played in the same clubs as mumble rap plus edm influenced a whole generation of internet mumble rappers

my taste is basically defined by any cross between rap & rock, i love stuff like emo rap & trap metal and also anime rap, aesthetic rap, lyrical rap, pop punk (actually that might be my favorite!) & even indie! theres even pop & country i like, especially stuff from 2015-2019! as for what i dont like theres plenty ancient stuff i dont really dig (pre 1970s) but if were talking modern music i dont really like soft slow r&b, soul or afro and i really dont like hood rap, drill or any kinda mumble rap (Lil Pump & Lil Xan are the only mumble rappers i like only cuz at least they make alternative music with rock & emo influences respectively, everybody else is pretty much wack cringe lords) and i hate modern female rap even more! not to be racist or anything (im definitely not a white supremacist, i hate supremacy so much its literally hitler to me)

my favorite artists include iann dior, jxdn, MGK, Huddy, MOD SUN, Sueco, YUNGBLUD, blackbear, Eminem & Lil Peep. iann specializes in emo rap & occasionally crosses into pop punk; jxdn, Huddy & YUNGBLUD are punk artists influenced by rappers like Juice WRLD & XXXTENTACION (love them too); MGK, MOD, Sueco & blackbear were originally rappers (blackbear was previously associated with alternative r&b) but later crossed into pop punk (tho MGK has returned to rap since); Eminem is the GOAT, nobody beats his rhymes & lyricism; Lil Peep connected with his listeners thru emotional lyrics and mixed rap with punk to make emo rap, in fact im pretty sure he was a nice guy in real life before his unfortunate death! again this isnt white supremacy or racism even tho every artist ive mentioned here is white (in fact almost every artist i mentioned has blond/dyed hair but NO SUPREMACY!) except iann dior whos darker (latino, he even has unreleased spanish songs) but still light skinned

my least favorite artists include...its gonna be a pain to write their names, thats how much i hate them...Ice Spice, NLE Choppa, Drake, Nardo Wick, 21 Savage, Lil Baby, Future, Pooh Shiesty, Central Cee & SpotemGottem. first off they all make me wanna cut off my ears & replace them with red ants constantly biting at my brain cells, thats how fricking awful they are. Ice Spice is a female hood rapper so no surprise i hate her (NOT MISOGYNY), she also makes drill which i hate even tho spotify thinks i love it; Choppa, Nardo, Savage, Shiesty & Spotem all fall under hood rap, basically they intentionally torture & traumatize their listeners hoping they have a bad day & feel lonely; Drake, Lil Baby & Future are mumble rappers who brag about literally the same things in literally every song, plus Lil Baby sounds like a cross between an autotuned sheep & a chipmunk choking on a hotdog; Central Cee is a british drill rapper, i hate UK drill even more than i hate american drill cuz literally every rapper bites the same flow, plus i really hate the united kingdom & their traditional culture (i know YUNGBLUDs british too but at least hes a cool dude & a nice guy who speaks for the misfits @ the same time, plus hes from northern england which i prefer so much to london where Cees from). almost every artist i said here is black but again dont take that for racism, theres plenty black artists i love such as KennyHoopla & POORSTACY. Black Lives Matter! (unless ur in a gang in which case ur a literal nazi & i hate u) while were at it theres also plenty females i love too such as Avril Lavigne & Halsey

i almost exclusively listen to music i said i love and havent even listened to music i said i hate since January (ok maybe February)! spotify are hooked on my old taste no matter how many cringe lords i hide or how many good guys/gals i follow & consistently listen to. can i mark anything i dislike as not interested (more like GET THIS OUT MY PERSONALIZED PROFILE PRONTO!)? or i could go talk to somebody important about this? its been pi$$ing me off for 3-4 months now and ive posted so many ideas/questions here!

Hey @dannybruhphantom,

Apologies for the late reply, I just stumbled upon your post 🙂

Here are a couple of ways you can improve the suggestions you get from Spotify:

1.) Exclude playlist from taste profile

You can exclude playlists you aren't interested in so that the app doesn't suggest similar content in the future:

1. Open the playlist and tap the three dots menu (right-click if you're on desktop).
2. Select Exclude from taste profile.

2.) Hide song / Don't play this artist

On the mobile app, you can hide songs songs you don't want the app playing by tapping the three dots menu > Hide song . You can also open the artist's profile and select Don't play this artist.

3.) Not interested

On the mobile app, you can curate the content in the Music feed of your Home screen. In case you find a suggestion that doesn't interest you, you can mark is as Not interested. More info here.

Hope this info was useful. Cheers!

i actually do all 3, im talking bout made for you playlists. as i said before lets say theres a mix i dont want, can i tell spotify i dont like it if its not on my homescreen? probably not which is why i posted an idea to enable users to do so...i was gonna send a link but turns out its been merged with another outta confusion

Dude you’re making life so hard. Just don’t pay attention to the made for you playlists if they’re not what you’re into. Play what you want to listen to.

Hey @dannybruhphantom,

Thanks for the reply and for the additional info!

We understand it can feel frustrating if recommendations don't fit your unique style & taste. The 3 options suggested by @Yordan are currently the best ways to improve your overall recommendations. Keep in mind that those take multiple factors into account, including listening habits of people who have a similar taste. 

While there's no way to dislike a specific playlist, you can always choose to Exclude a playlist from your taste profile (expect for dynamic playlists such as Daily Mix, as they update regularly).

Hope this clears things up, cheers!

thanks i guess...

please enable 'hide song' on desktop - going insane with hearing songs I don't like keep going into my recommended list
