OK, and other bands and artists too. But realistically that’s who you’re going to use it for, right?
Blocking an artist on Spotify means if you listen to a playlist with one of their songs on, it’ll automatically skip. They also won’t come up in your auto-generated playlists like Discover Weekly anymore. Win.
Annoyingly, you can only do this on the Spotify mobile app, not the desktop one.
Here’s how:
Search for Sheeran, tap “don’t play this” on the artist menu (see left screenshot) and you’re done.
Next time you load up a playlist (including on desktop) that has a load of Sheeran in it, it’ll auto-skip those and just play the good stuff. Yay!
Who will you be muting on Spotify first?
