How to Completely Stop Spotify from Recommending Russian Music?

How to Completely Stop Spotify from Recommending Russian Music?

How to Completely Stop Spotify from Recommending Russian Music?
I am Ukrainian, and I am outraged that the platform continues to push Russian music on me. I don’t listen to it, I don’t like it, I don’t add it to my playlists, yet it still appears in my recommendations. This is unacceptable! I have the right to listen to music in my own language or in languages I am comfortable with, and I do not want Spotify’s algorithms to violate this.

Good evening!

 

Unfortunately it's currently not possible to block an entire language from your recommendations. What you could try though is when a russian artist comes up is open up their profile and click the three dots. There should be an option called 'Don't play this artist anymore'. Maybe when you do that enough times with russian artists it stops with the recommendations. Hope this helps!
