26. The Dixie Chicks took a stand against the Vietnam War, did they?

They have not pulled their music from Spotify, though. So maybe it isn't as easy as you're making it out to be.

If you disagree, that’s okay. You won’t change my mind. Have a nice day and stay warm.


I don't "disagree". You're just wrong. Artists generally don't have exclusive rights to their music. In most cases, those rights are held by the labels, and the labels get to decide where the music is streamed.

Here's a 66-year-old explaining why her music is still on Spotify: https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/02/entertainment/spotify-rosanne-cash-remove-music-crosby-stills-cec/index.html
