@moritznotes @KingZefTV @LukeMiani Creators and content providers should be paid for their work online. Small amounts from many people would add up to significant revenues. Think $.10 from 1 million people. that’s $100,000.

DJ @stickydojah is making cutting up 45s an art form. If he had an easy way to throw him a few bucks during his set - would you? We would! #dj #music #vinyl

Is $5k meaningful to a musician?

Yes. (Obviously).

But it shouldn’t take 1.5 million streams to get there.

There’s a simpler way.

Ft. @ceascott

To earn $5k on Spotify, you’d have to have your music streamed 1.5 MILLION times.

Or you could ask your followers to give you $2 each on https://t.co/Y2J0W0FSdz.

We know what we’d pick.

97% of artists on #Spotify make less than $1k a year. If that’s not proof the #musicindustry is a #brokenrecord, nothing is. Ft. @ceascott

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

Spotify had their best Q3 to date this year - total revenue topped €3 billion and they added 7M paid subscribers.

And yet they still only pay artists $0.0033 per stream.

Yep, that math totally makes sense. 🙄

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

It takes ~1M streams on #Spotify for an artist to earn $4k. Something is very wrong with this picture. #brokenrecord Ft. @ceascott

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

How many streams does it take to make $4k on @Spotify ? (Spoiler: more than you think). #brokenrecord

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

“Capsize” by @wearefrenship and @emilywarrennnn earned $150k from 40M streams over 10 weeks.

What if every streamer had given them $1 instead?

That’s how we change the #brokenrecord that is the #musicindustry.

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

We didn’t think we’d need to get @ceascott dancing to get people to care about the terrible state of the streaming #music industry, but here we are. It’s a #brokenrecord.

[Contribute.to @Contributeto2]

It’s time for us to talk about the #musicindustry and how it’s a #brokenrecord. https://t.co/Y2J0W0FSdz for Music is here! Ft. @ceascott and @radiohead.

We totally love what @LSalgadoArtist does.

Luciana's #selfportraits are beautiful, introspective glances into her lived experience. We honestly can't get enough of them.

❤️Follow @LSalgadoArtist for more great art! ❤️

@cutandplaced creates the type of #collage you can get lost in. Each piece of paper is hand cut, torn, glued and placed - a perfect assemblage in every way.

Have you discovered @HannahWillowArt yet?

Hannah's illustrations remind us of the picture books we read as children. Hannah's work is full of awe, and a magic that we don't see that often.
