So, I decided to share a very interesting article, which in fact laid out what I have been saying for a very long time: not fans, but creators...and [#TikTok -owned pocket] music distributor to [their] own platform and to [other] DSPs as well... Now #MusicBusiness #MusicIndustry #majorlabels Warner starts a search to get its own #indie music distributor too https://musicx.substack.com/p/tiktok-eats-the-music-industry-for via https://publme.space/reactions/v/45530

Most of #artists and #Producers as well as #Musicians will not get ANY royalties next year from #Spotify.
I personally understand the background but can't agree. If you want to keep your topline growing or at least stay at the same level and feed so-called business "elite" please use other ways to do this. So many talents are there below this 1000-streams threshold!

Whoever wondered what's wrong with today's pop music - this video explains it all.
It is not just a gut feeling that there is very little variation, talent and intelligence today, compared to famous artists from the 60s, 70s, or 80s - there are actually statistics about it.

And I have the answer now, why to me trend songs always feel like criminal assault.

#indiemusic is the real music.

Tidal will join Apple. More centralization #majorlabels balance to #decentralization. Amazon increases prices.

'It's disrespectful not to give credit': Should producers bootleg and use uncleared samples? 📌

"But when it came to Drake sampling an underground club music staple on his last album, did Universal bother to clear or even credit it ahead of its release? Of course they didn't. Now tell me where your anger would be best directed."

Musically adds to this and UMG says: “I must remind you, 11 or 12 years ago, no one had heard of Spotify in the United States...". If you know the story of #Spotify it is quite interesting to know how this "breakthrough" had happened.

This letter seems very logical from #majorlabels point of view. Every corporation needs to grow at YTD sales and profit rate each year. And as soon as something starts to change then the #MusicBusiness model requires a change again...for the sake of competition. via https://publme.space/reactions/v/15969 https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/sir-lucian-grainge-music-needs-a-new-streaming-payout/
