Peloton Removes Classes with Kanye West Music Completely

Peloton features Kanye West's music in hundreds of its classes previously. But now, its users would no longer see any class featuring tunes from Ye.

The giant fitness firm announced last October that it would no longer include Ye's music in its future classes.

And this time, previous classes that featured the rapper, who has been suspended on Twitter and Instagram for his antisemitic comments, are now gone.

Peloton Removes Classes with Kanye West Music on its On-Demand Library

As per the story by The Verge, Peloton has pulled out classes featuring Kanye West music from its on-demand library.

It is worth noting that Peloton previously told its users that Ye's music would no longer be played on future fitness videos. The fitness firm announced it last October following the antisemitic statements of the rapper.

During that time, older classes featuring his music were still available on the platform. But this time, Peloton has completely ditched all these classes from its on-demand library.

It turns out that these classes did not vanish into thin air in one go. The Verge says, citing the Pelo Buddy, that videos with Ye music started leaving last December 6. A few days since then, all of his classes have seemingly disappeared.

The Verge has also confirmed that when users search for either "Ye" or "Kanye West," the search results are empty.

So when Peloton members attempted to look for a yoga class featuring the songs of the rapper, they could no longer do so. It includes other classes like strength, boot camp, cycling, and tread.

The fitness firm has yet to confirm the removal of classes featuring the controversial rapper. But for now, searching his name would no longer draw any results. It is empty, only showing suggested searches like Lady Gaga or Britney.

No More Kanye West Music for Future Classes

According to a recent report by Insider, Peloton has previously confirmed that it would no longer use Ye music in its future videos.

On top of that, the fitness firm says it would no longer promote the previous classes that featured his music in its algorithm.

Before these classes were reportedly removed, there were roughly 1,800 videos featuring Ye's music on the platform.

It is worth mentioning that Peloton is just one of the giant firms that decided to cut ties with the rapper. Fashion behemoths like Gap, Balenciaga, and, later on, Adidas also bid farewell to Ye.
