DmX might have been told but forgot


You ever wondered why swizz beats dee and waah was always cool with Jay

But DMX always seemed to have a issue


This is why

Its was mostly a competition issue

Thats what it was

The World, but from BK
It's a tiered system. Higher amount of equiv sales/streams, higher amount per album.

It's always different depending on which period you look at and the artist releasing data
This had tidal at $0.01284
What Streaming Music Services Pay (Updated for 2020)

And older one at $0.012
So far, TIDAL's royalty payouts nearly double Spotify's

One equivalent sale is 1500 streams of a song, 1500 * $0.012 is $18.

Now artists that go platinum are artists like Lil Baby, Travis Scott, Meek Mill, Post Malone, Drake, Cardi and on. Some of which double platinum and more, think Drake went 5 or 6x.




Bruhs, stop trying to figure out the artist cut. I worked at Spotify for 2 years. Unless the system changed since late 2018, the streaming service pays the record label and lets them figure it out.

Props to Jay-Z for helping other artists out.

Nobody is doing that :patrice:

to the owners of the music (that is artists, song-writers, label, management, publishing company etc.).

Jay did a interview in XXL saying he would love to put it out but Joe never turned it in



Joe later admitted to never turning it in he totaly forgot ....I with I could find the scan of that interview :francis:


Joe was on one around that time Joe smoke cigs with embalming fluid ...and was losing his voice for a bit


this was around 2004-2005

Good point. I wasn't considering the crack effect.

But Hov a snake and this and that. Time after time he silently does really nikkas things.

could you imagine 50 doing this? No, but if he did he’d make 10 IG posts tagging Dmx joking about clearing his debt.

Hov the realest nikka doin it til u prove me wrong :wow:

50 is far from a good or equal example.

But that's some dope shyt Jay did.

Hov stay helping nikkas out and ya'll stay fixing your face to shyt on him

I don't get it

Give credit where it's due, nothing wrong with that and you should. But when cats are fukking up and are wrong, you can criticize as well. It's not either or.
