When you try to access the artists’ data channels, you get a message that they are blocked for violating the service’s rules. There is no information on what the violation is exactly.
So far, only Shaman has spoken out about what happened.
“My YouTube channel was blocked because I am RUSSIAN,” the artist wrote on his Telegram channel. (Author’s style has been preserved)
Previously, these artists were subject to EU sanctions for supporting a special operation in Ukraine.
