New censorship territory for Spotify.

Spotify has removed an anti-lockdown song by Ian Brown, the former lead vocalist of English rock band The Stone Roses. The music streaming service claims the song violated its policies against COVID-19 misinformation.

Brown released the anti-lockdown song “Little Seed Big Tree” last September. “NO LOCKDOWN NO TESTS NO TRACKS NO MASKS NO VAX,” he tweeted while launching the song.

On March 12, Brown took to Twitter to announce that Spotify had removed his song.

“SPOTiFY stream the streams and censor artists like they have with my last song TOOK IT DOWN just put it down the memory hole! FREE EXPRESSiON AS REVOLUTION,” he wrote.

Since the start of the pandemic, Brown has been the subject of many calls for censorship for his skeptical attitude towards the coronavirus. He has supported anti-mask movements and, more recently, vaccine skepticism. The musician also believes that the pandemic was “planned and designed to make us digital slaves.”

“To all of you asking about my medical qualifications, I have the same as the computer seller Bill Gates (biggest funder of the World Health Organisation),” he wrote in a Tweet last September, hitting back at critics.

Brown has even refused to be the headliner of Manchester’s Neighborhood Weekender festival, because COVID-19 vaccination proof might be required for entry.

“My Saturday night headline show at NHBD Weekender Festival will now not happen!” he tweeted. “I refuse to accept vaccination proof as a condition of entry. Refunds are available!”

He had previously suggested he would not perform if COVID-19 vaccination proof was a requirement, saying he would “NEVER sing to a crowd who must be vaccinated as a condition of attendance. NEVER EVER!”

Spotify has followed in big tech’s footsteps of censoring COVID-19 content, which is, according to them, any information that contradicts information provided by the WHO and other public health organizations. However, Spotify is the first to censor Brown’s song, which is an interesting move for Spotify to step into the world of censoring art.

“Spotify prohibits content on the platform which promotes dangerous false, deceptive, or misleading content about COVID-19 that may cause offline harm and/or pose a direct threat to public health. When content that violates this standard is identified it is removed from the platform,” a Spotify spokesperson told Reclaim The Net.

Here are the lyrics:

[Intro: Ian Brown]
We don't need no stinking badges

[Chorus: Ian Brown]
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Standing on its own, thriving all alone
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Grows so high, gonna touch the sky
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Spreads roots deep, branches far and wide

[Verse 1: Ian Brown]
Masonic lockdown, in your hometown
Masonic lockdown, can you hear me now
From the top down, soul shot down
State shakedown, mass breakdown
Global orders, riding over borders
Get behind your doors for the new world order
Doctor Evil and his needle
Doctor Evil with a masterplan
A forced vaccine, like a bad dream
They'll plant a microchip, every woman, child and man
A plan to chip us all, to have complete control
The land, the sky, your soul

[Verse 2: Ian Brown]
Peace like silence in the snow
Free to do exactly as your told
Obey, consume and die
And up to heaven for your pie up in the sky
Sleep walking, dreaming, you best believe your lying eyes
Geoengineering, making more than patterns in the skies
5G radiation, beamed to Earth from space by satellites
The scientist and mediatrist
Trying to tell me 2 and 2 is 5
'scuse me while I mention the strategy of tension, mass mind manipulation
Psychological operation
The general population, hypnotised, right in front of your eyes
Drama and lies
Look into my eyes

[Chorus: Ian Brown]
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Standing on its own, thriving all alone
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Grows so high, gonna touch the sky
Just a little seed, makes a big tree
Spreads roots deep, branches far and wide

[Verse 2: Ian Brown]
Masonic lockdown, in your hometown
Masonic lockdown, can you feel me now
Masonic lockdown, soul shot down
State shakedown, a mass breakdown
Put your muzzle on, get back in your basket
Get behind your doors cause living here is drastic
Doctor Evil and his needle
Doctor Evil with a masterplan
A forced vaccine, like a bad dream
They'll plant a microchip, every woman, child and man
A plan to chip us all, to have complete control
The land, the sky, your soul

[Outro: Ian Brown]
Na, Na, Na, Na
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na
Na, Na, Na, Na
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

[Outro Sample: Bill Gates]
"I mean we're taking things that are, you know, genetically modified organisms and were injecting them in little kids arms, we just shoot 'em right into the vein."

"But you don't have a choice, people act like you have a choice"

Censorship is nazi level these days. Must worship globohomo or else get cancelled.

Stone Roses need to include some 'sopping wet pussy' lyrics, and it'll camouflage the propaganda censors.

Ian Brown, sometimes a moron, sometimes on point.

This is nuts, the whole point of art is freedom of expression and interpretation, I would even leave WAP uncensored. But to censor music with moderate lyrics just because they are political is fucking Mao, Hitler and Stalin combined. Ok almost. Fuck this.

I have a t shirt with the masons/illuminati pyramid with the eye, but it is 'Chilluminati' for a music group, kind of a riff. Nonetheless, I am surprised that some people look at me in fear sometimes when I am wearing this shirt and they stare at it.

All of this Globalist Fourth Reich and Doctor Mengele sadism against the populace is making me more curious about the persistent tales of these old cults. Switzerland is full of Masonic architecture, including Skull and Bones symbols of Yale fame. Of course, Washington DC is laid out with the Masonic symbols and the Washington Monument with the pyramidal top has its analogs in the City of London and the Vatican.

The Assassin's Creed playstation games are all about the cult of ancient assassins fighting the Templars throughout history. I have played a couple of them so far and they include some interesting history reenactments as well as extensive tours of Europe, Egypt and Greece.

I am a member of a group that exchanges goods and services using script papers emblazoned with that same Eye of Horus pyramid.

That would make you an illuminati.

Did that mean your bosses were "dim bulbs?"

Dimbulbattis. They plot to take over the world, but settle for Colt 45 and a welfare check.
