Block songs for your league
As commissioner you set the music standard for your league. Today a block is enforced on the team, in the app: a coach blocks a song or a whole artist, and every version of it goes grey in the song picker. League-wide rules you set once in the console are coming.
How a block works today
Blocking happens in the app, under Studio. A coach searches the full catalog, previews a track, and blocks it either for one team or for every team they run. From then on that song is greyed out in the song picker and can't be assigned. Each team has its own Safe search toggle alongside it.
It catches the variants
A block isn't just an exact-title match. It covers the live, remix, remaster, sped-up, and explicit versions of the same song, so a variant doesn't get through under a slightly different name. A coach picks one of two: block that song and all its versions, or block the artist outright so there's no song-by-song whack-a-mole.
League-wide rules are coming
In the console, League Settings is where your league-wide list will live: one standard you set once that reaches every team, with the same variant matching, and the commissioner's call always on top of a coach's own list. It's a preview today and the console says so on the page rather than pretending.
Until then, the fastest route is to send your coaches the list. Blocking a handful of tracks in Studio takes about a minute per team, and it holds for every game after that.
