Earlier this week, the legendary singer-songwriter shared more thoughts about the administration, as well as news that he's working on a new album."I am so hurt for this country," he began the post on Neil Young Archives on Monday (March 9), continuing: Politics today is sad and depressing for me. I can't do it anymore. I can go out and demonstrate my feelings about it. We have the worst president in the history of our country. Every day a bad TV show produced by DJT is what we get.Now, thankfully, once again, I'm in the studio recording a new album with the Chrome Hearts. I love the songs and the feelings of life and love. Music is. So far we have eight new songs. They make me feel.Last month, he canceled a tour he was supposed to play with his new band Chrome Hearts, saying he "decided to take a break." Also earlier this year he gifted his entire catalog to Greenland after Trump's threats to seize the territory. And back in August of last year he channeled his hatred of Trump through his song "Big Crime."Share on FacebookShare on RedditShare on EmailShare on BlueskyDanielle Chelosky@dniellecheloskyRead More:Donald Trump,Neil YoungGET THE STEREOGUM DIGESTThe week's most important music stories and least important music memes.EmailSign upMore from NewsExplore NewsNewsLil Nas X Shares Statement After Latest Court AppearanceMarch 12, 2026NewsPras Dropping Lauryn Hill Lawsuit, Lauryn Hill Resolving $900k Tax Debt, Wyclef Prepping Seven AlbumsMarch 12, 2026News“These People Are So Stupid”: Live Nation Employees Bragged About “Robbing” Ticket BuyersMarch 12, 2026NewsPearl Jam’s Mike McCready Announces Grunge OperaMarch 12, 2026NewsMorrissey Too Sleepy To Perform Tonight, Says Noisy Hotel Was “Indescribable Hell”March 12, 2026NewsLord Sear Dead At 53March 12, 2026
