i try to introduce fans to new artists and artists to new fans. if i ever do that even once, we all win.

Let’s be dead honest. Who else but Prez T could have done something like this on that beat? Scary to even touch that beat with its status, and then it takes a unique flow to make something like “ending careers”. He’s the only one who ever could have done it.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

We don’t talk enough about “ending careers” by @Prez_T - truly. Absolute s tier all timer.

Okay @Spotify - let artists tag a release with who it sounds similar to and let users make a smart playlist that brings all those songs into the playlist on a weekly basis. Then have a filter where they can set a number of monthly listeners as a cutoff. Easy new music discovery

Woodes is the goat and everyone is sleeping on her

Okay @MusiqSoulchild i have genuinely always wondered this - why are Damian’s vocals moved to be just a touch earlier at the end of the Spotify version of “iwannabe” than in the album version from back in the day?

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

All this time later, who had the best Cammy Riddim? I say it had to be @Prez_T - whenever it’s a question of using the same beat, nobody stands out like prez. Always the most original.

Australian artists may very well be making the best music in the whole world right now. The average song I hear from there is a banger at a much higher percentage than anywhere else.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

Filters being
-“monthly listeners is greater/lesser than”
-“artist is/isn’t followed”

Then, filter spam artists out by letting listeners report a tag as spam and having a threshold with which to remove the tag.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

So @Spotify I have solved a life’s mission and it is up to you to make this a thing.

-Let an artist tag a song they release as “sounds like x artist/song”.

-Let listeners create smart playlists that pull every new release with that tag every month with their own filters.

I have streamed this artist on Spotify for nearly a half year of my life lol

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

@TheDanPurcell Love that!!

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

*This opinion is not backed by proof*

But I feel like when artists start a cool song on tiktok, the time from getting everyone hyped to releasing the song needs to be about half what it always is. I lose excitement every single time by video 40 about the song “releasing soon”

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

@justmike so your platform sounds amazing. If you look through my tweets you’ll see I muse about this problem often. When will you be able to maybe offer it to other artists?

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

Sometimes I think that some artists who haven’t “made it” might just be making music that “sounds” like the wrong time period. But then I’m glad that they do it anyway because it’s their sound.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

And it really makes it no wonder that so many people who “make it” in music are just rich people who could afford to dedicate all the time and money to stay consistent. Everyone else is just trying to do professional work on hobby budget and time.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

Man. An artist I really like is hanging it up after many years of making absolute jams. It’s got me thinking about the state of things and how hard it has to be for those artists who have a large following but are in that limbo of things just not being quite viable financially.

[the eye playlists @theeyeplaylists]

The current situation opening up anybody’s ability to make and release music is awesome. But I think we’re just a while off from finding the answer to how to convert a following into financial support.

I own an older mercedes so I always get their dealership emails and the amount of like “get your dad the perfect gift for fathers day” emails I get where the “perfect gift” is like a $150,000 car is insane. Some people are really living like that I guess.
