Users find adult content videos on Spotify

The well-known music platform Spotify has made headlines again, but for reasons you wouldn’t believe. Just a few days ago, a user pointed out a “peculiar” Spotify error on social media: when searching for music, one of the contents that appeared was a pornographic video.

The user in question posted on Reddit a post showing how when searching for a song by M.I.A, a video of Mia Khalifa, a well-known adult film actress, appeared instead. Likewise, The Verge verified how numerous similar contents could be seen within the videos tab on Spotify.

The Verge also discovered that, within the platform, there were numerous users posting sexual audio and video content. For its part, Spotify commented that, at this time, it had already removed several of these profiles for violating the company’s policies.

Although it may come as a surprise to many, Spotify’s problem with porn has been around for a long time. Users have already expressed on more than one occasion how adult films have slipped into their search results, including audios. For listeners, it’s also not easy to report this type of content; if we wanted to do so, we would have to fill out a form from the website, as it is impossible from the app.

Spotify announced in early March 2024 the inclusion of videos within the application. The idea was to give the user the option to switch between video and song with just the press of a button. Although Spotify had already experimented with visual effects like including small looping videos, this new feature would allow us to enjoy music videos just as we would on YouTube.
