Many artists were pissed off at him too and they asked Spotify to ban him from the platform. Joe issued a public apology for his statement, and everything was about to cool down.
Rogan thought he was off the hook, but a video of him saying the N-word surfaced online, and singer India Arie once again started the ‘cancel Joe Rogan’ moment.

He said, “I will quit. If it gets to a point that I can’t do it anymore, where I have to do it in some sort of weird way where I walk on eggshells and mind my p’s and q’s, f–k that! There’s more people poring over it but it’s the same thing. I do it the same way. If I become something different because it grew bigger, I will quit.” (H/T NYPost.com)
Talking about his N-word comments, he said, “It looks f–king horrible. Even to me. I know that, to most people, there is no context where a white person is ever allowed to say that word, never mind publicly on a podcast, and I agree with that now. I haven’t said it in years.”
