Another company is distancing itself from Ye—the rapper and songwriter formerly known as Kanye West—following a string of antisemitic comments made by the artist. Peloton, the popular stationary workout bike company, has stopped using Ye’s music in its streaming classes indefinitely, per CNN.
Pelobuddy, an unofficial website for Peloton users that provides tips and insight but is not associated with the company, released a statement provided to it by Peloton, saying the company has “indefinitely paused the use of Kanye West’s music on our platform."
“This means our instructors are no longer using his music in any newly produced classes and we are not suggesting any class that includes his music in our proactive recommendations to Members,” the statement read.
