Dislike / Block a Music Genre
+1
Shortly, I don't want to hear, listen or even see some kind of music and it'd be great if Deezer allowed me to permanently mute those. The same way you did with The Flow.
+9Move your comment here, please vote for the idea - it's related.
You should also have a look here. You can now block artists if you do it from our desktop app!
I would like to block the whole genres. E.g., I hate rap music and don't want to listen to it ever.

+1However, you can definitely improve your flow by adding more content - albums, artists, songs - into your favorites. To avoid songs you don't like, use the ban button. Tap on it and this song will not be played for the next 24 hours. If you do this three times, Flow will not play it again. Your social media profiles can also affect your flow. If you've linked your Deezer account to your Facebook profile, your favorite songs and artists will automatically appear in your artists. Please also check this https:// https://support.deezer.com/hc/de/articles/201331091-Flow if you have further questions.
Likewise, I recommend you to select artists you don't like, click on the 3 dots and on the "ban" button.
Last but not least: a feature which blocks a whole genre would definitely help, so I invite you to submit this great idea here. We look forward to it 🙂
How can I block Deezer Rap editor, to not see Rap playlist in recommended playlists? I am very sorry, but I mostly hate this genre.
+9Hi there
Sorry you feel that way. At the moment it isn't possible to block a genre but what you can do is to use the feature 'don't recommend this artist' by visiting the artists' page. Hope it helps :thumbsup_tone2:
+7Hi there, we decided to not implement this at the moment, but note that you can still remove artists from your recommendations. We'll keep passing all feedback on to the team.

yes please add this feature. I sometimes listed to electronic music as white noise while I work. My Flow is unplayable as it interjects the rock and grunge I want to listen to with techno!

If you are on a mobile Deezer app, you should already be able to choose the preferred genre for Flow, see the related announcement a few months ago. It will take more time to offer this on the web player and desktop app, but it’s also planned, as far as I know.
Hi
It’s been 5 years since it’s been in your ideas Forum. I don’t know why it is not possible to block the music style in your Recommendations/Flow. I’ve blocked more than 200 artists and 1000 songs of Banda music style and it still appears on my flow.
This was on of the main damn reason I joined and pay the premium fee and I still can’t stop shit music from being suggested! I dont want podcasts or book readings or sharing my lists with every damn person with ears on pleanet eartth!
I like Flow, I like the deep cuts but damn Deezer, let me block any song,artist, genre, album or playlist!!!
For this BS I might as well go back to SpotiHell like some tween girl!
DAMN IT!
What is more, despite the fact I have blocked some artists, they are played by the Flow again. It may be a bug.
Still, this is an embarrassment, that while listening for example "drum and bass" Flow is serving F****** "bravo hits", or while listening "metal" it is serving "pop rock"! WTF!

You can do whatever you want. But if I see I can get that on other streaming service. I’m going there.
Thing is…. Deezer is not making an progress in years. This is my 4 year old post.
And while Deezer website and app is not making any progress to make listening to music more pleasurable, it keeps floding us users with the music we don’t like and makes harder to avoid it. We can’t block millions of artists we don’t care about. It’s a work. Evne flow is not working as it should. Despite me blocking hundreds of rappers, they’re still popping out. Not to mention more complex situation where your editor’s choice in electronic music is on par with the worst commercial MTV.
I am now going to explore Spotify.
+6Blocking specific music styles or genres is not a feature available on Deezer at the moment.
I understand how important it is for you to have control over the content you listen to, and I'll make sure to pass your feedback along to our development team for consideration in future updates.
In the meantime, if you need help with anything else or have any further feedback, feel free to let me know.
NOTE: It's crucial to be mindful of our language and tone in the community.
Let's keep our interactions respectful and constructive to maintain a positive and welcoming environment for everyone.
Yes, well if you keep hearing the same BS line for 4 years then forget it. Or F*&K it. I quit Deezer, sick of getting RAP songs that I skipped or artists that I deleted in my feeds/flow.
I am getting my Discman out of the closet!
Later everyone, I hope you all get your Christmas Wishes this year.
