The Black Madonna pulls out of Amazon-backed Intersect music festival
to tell fans she was unaware of Amazon’s sponsorship of Intersect when she signed on for the December 6th and 7th festival; “What the fuck is this Amazon shit? I absolutely didn’t agree to this. Oh hell no,” the DJ wrote.
Two days later, the Black Madonna formally announced her exit from Intersect in a long statement where she criticized Amazon’s business practices and associations. “I will not be performing at Intersect Festival due to their relationship with Amazon Web Services who have business ties with ICE and Homeland Security,” the Black Madonna wrote.
“The event proposed to me initially was framed as and arts and technology weekender with other artists I deeply respected and with well known and respected production teams. It presented no cause for concern. I was not approached by employees of Amazon. I was never formally or informally advised of any Amazon branding. The offer I accepted did not propose any kind of brand partnership.
