Run For Cover Records Removes Their Entire Roster From Israeli Streaming Services, Joins ‘No Music For Genocide’

'No Music For Genocide' is defined as a "cultural boycott of Israel," according to the movement's website. Stating that over 1,000 artists and labels have blocked and removed their music from "that territory in response to Israel's genocide in Gaza; occupation and ethnic cleansing of the West Bank; apartheid within Israel / '48; political repression of Pro-Palestine efforts wherever we live; and the music industry's own ties to weapons and crimes against humanity."

The website acknowledges that it's only one step toward "honoring Palestinian demands to isolate and delegitimize Israel as it kills without consequence on the world stage." Citing previous success in South Africa and Russia, more and more artists are signing up for the initiative and removing their music from streaming platforms in Israel, with Run For Cover Records joining the list of artists and labels that support 'No Music For Genocide.'
