How the traditional streaming services are paying artists...

🟠 genuinely curious. /higher-market &  /music & /pals & /boston ↠ say hello 👋 ↑

For many artists, hitting 10,000 plays on a new song is a big deal. But on Spotify, that only adds up to $44. There’s gotta be a better way!


If you saw the lifetime income I’ve earned since 2016 on distrokid,  you’d tell me to immediately just embrace being a plumber and abandon art forever haha

“A lot of mid-level intellectual jobs are gonna disappear. My best bet about a job that’s safe is plumbing.”

from recording .RA files DL’d on a 14.4k modem onto cassettes to now owning my very own anti-social graph. 😣

My favorite career next to Warner Brothers / Netflix was Landscaping.   Not as respected as my decade teaching physicians but rewarding in the spirit of art, and nature.    Ears and body just can’t handle that stuff anymore haha

Hinton is not wrong eh 🥲
