Prince has done a good job of making it known that he’s not exactly a fan of modern technology, at least not when it comes to selling his music. Now, The Purple One’s publisher has pulled all his music from streaming searches except for Jay Z’s music service Tidal, without any public explanation.
“Prince’s publisher has asked all streaming services to remove his catalogue. We have cooperated with the request, and hope to bring his music back as soon as possible,” says a note on Prince’s Spotify page. His music has also been removed from Apple Music and Radio.
For some time Prince’s legal team has worked to pull his music off YouTube and the song Breakfast Can Wait remains the only track on his channel.
