The Latest: R. Kelly's management criticizes Spotify
NEW YORK (AP) — The Latest on R. Kelly and Spotify (all times local):
3:45 p.m.
R. Kelly's management is criticizing Spotify for removing the superstar's songs from its playlists and algorithmic recommendations.
A statement sent to The Associated Press on Thursday says R. Kelly is innocent of allegations he sexually abused women over the years. He was acquitted of child pornography charges in 2008.
Spotify has announced a new policy on hate content and hateful conduct and says Kelly's alleged behavior falls under that policy.
