Misogynist influencer’s content reportedly sparked objections from staff as well as a petition signed by 92,000

Summary

Spotify removed an Andrew Tate podcast titled Pimping Hoes after complaints, including a petition with over 92,000 signatures.

The company cited violations of its policies against dehumanizing content but denied employee complaints influenced the decision. Other Tate podcasts remain on the platform despite accusations that they promote misogyny and exploitation.

The Tate brothers, facing rape and human trafficking charges in Romania and under investigation in the UK, claim innocence.

The controversy follows broader concerns about Spotify hosting harmful content, including past criticism over Joe Rogan’s podcast.
