TroyCarterIs Troy Carter leaving Spotify?  Rumor spread that Spotfiy's global head of creator services was leaving after the streamer's new 'hate and hurtful' policy banned  XXXTentacion, R Kelly and others from official playlists. While concerned that the policy smacked of censorship, Carter denied the rumors. Now, they've resurfaced with a destination attached to the move.

Troy Carter will be exiting Spotify for Epic Records, the New York Post is reporting. Both Spotify and the label have denied the move.
