The Joe Rogan Experience host Joe Rogan is claiming that the n-word controversy has offered him a hike of more than 2 million followers on his Spotify profile.

Previously, Joe Rogan got involved in a controversy regarding his usage of the n-word and his personal opinion of COVID-19. However, it did not make him lose any subscribers instead boosted his online follower base on Spotify.

Rogan has gained much popularity through his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience on Spotify. The host claimed that he has claimed a huge number of followers during the controversy.

The controversies occurred on Fridays episode that featured Douglas Murray, a renowned British political commentator. Murray said to Rogan, You have been put through the wringer since we last met, with reference to the netizens protest and trying to cancel Rogan and his show. He said, They did a number on you. Wow.

Rogan responded, Its interesting, my subscriptions went up massively thats whats crazy. He was quite excited about the fact that the controversy did not defame him and instead offered more monthly listeners for his podcast.

He further said, During the height of it all, I gained two million subscribers Yeah, [the media] went for it. Its also fortunate that the people who went for it were CNN. Theyre so untrustworthy and people know how biased they are and socially weird their anchors are.

However, Spotify does not reveal the number of hikes in listener base and so experts are suggesting that it might be just a normal growth due to Spotify listeners base and its not a surge.

In a recent video posted on Rogans Instagram profile, Joe expresses his thoughts about the compilation of using the N-word that Arie posted was the most regretful and shameful thing that Ive ever had to talk about publicly. However, he said that it was taken out of context.

Joe further said, Its not my word to use. I am well aware of that now, but for years I used it in that manner, but he assured his intentions multiple times by saying I never used it to be racist because Im not racist.

In regard to his comments on the Covid situation, he said, this is so baffling to me, since he was a standup comedian and he talks on various topics on his show. He exclaimed, If youre taking vaccine advice from me, is that really my fault?

Surely, Rogan is quite frustrated with the political correctness and said, If you want my advice, dont take my advice. Notably, a lot of black music artists and even Neil Young are taking down their music from Spotify in protest of Rogans words.

Spotify has taken down more than 70 episodes of his podcast yet the controversy is on. Stay tuned to know more!
