One could say this all isn't much different than how the free market works (only the best music gets listened to, making the best artists successful), except the elephant in the room is who is controlling other people's success and to what end. If this was just about "controlling the market" for the sake of the commonwealth, then why not let the free market deal with it? 🧐 Maybe the motives of the people currently in control of the music industry aren't in the best interests of the commonwealth.

I've always thought of it like thresholds would be low maybe because reading books may be at an all time low.

I actually know exactly how they are doing this on Spotify. And on SoundCloud. I was watching a computer science video about probability when I had the idea. I tested it on SoundCloud just to see if it really works and I went to sleep. The next morning, the song I had to uploaded to SoundCloud had 16k plays. I’m not going to get into much detail because I don’t support this practice and I think it’s scummy. This was just an experiment. But I will be vague… basically a couple dozen alternate proxy servers set up streaming the song, on repeat from dozens of countries at once via VPN trickery… all from a single computer. The hardest part was writing a python script for this for automation.. though wasn’t too difficult, But these days with AI… Things are so accessible for anyone. My guess is the labels could add millions of plays and views overnight if they wanted. But that would raise suspicion. So they are probably trying to be somewhat discrete about the rate in which they boost their product.

I'm a professional drummer. Here is a money story for ya. There's a professional player who made 4000 a month in his first pro gig in the late 70s. Then he got the gig with Lionel Richie and the money went to 30000 a month. Next Michael Jackson's band for 45000 a month. Then we hit the 90s. His next offer was for the backstreet boys..... they offered 10000 a month. Today a pro player can earn as little as 4 to 5 thousand a month from gigs. Most also teach and do whatever else they can to stay in the game, as they do it for the love. I get it. Especially as a drummer. Who wants to pay good money for a live musician when a machine will do the job for near zero cost.

I reported the playlists and the user but they both still on Spotify and my song was taken down. That's bullshit. We don't have any control over what user do in the platform. If your song is pick and place on a bot playlist without your concent, you have no way to remove it.

Shultz finally realizes Hollywood is fake 😮 of course lol why do you think Katt Williams talks shit & Kanye West says to “bomb Juice” & Will Smith slaps Chris Rock?? It’s a business.

I seen some new kid come out his name was 4batz and this kid has been out for TWO seconds and has 2 or 3 songs n has 10M views n followers n I'm over here like the song is cute for what it is, but 10M in like a month? HOW?? And I'm not well versed in the numbers aspect but I can clearly see something isnt adding up with newer artist , hell even ones that's are supposed to be seasoned numbers and it's not adding up. This is going to backfire with the labels and artists and it's going to ruin it because of greed. As usual🙄

What he said at the end of the clip is so dang real/honest. My respect for him just flew through the roof. He's not gonna fall into the faking the streams bc it will affect everything for independents. This dude is keeping it real for everyone, hats off to ya man

Russ stay dropping gems 💎 on the regular- never understood why this dude gets so much hate… yet, his music gets so much love?! He’s one of the only real ones in the industry who tells it how it is. Hope he keeps growing like this. Dig the music, but respect him more for the insights he delivers. 💯

Back in the day, it's like getting a diamond by releasing double disks album. The album actually only sold 5mil copies but they counted it as 10mil and you got diamond.

Thats legit. I have it on good authority that kendrick's team is buying a lot of views not only on spotify but on youtube aswell.
