It does but games gives you access to a lot if take advantage of it

most of these artist aren’t getting fukked by the major labels. They are getting fukked by the indie labels and local labels that gave them an advance when they were desperate
Which indie labels?

nikkas say "streams aren't real sales!!!!" but they bring in the same amount of money lol

Also, he was doing 2-3 shows a week making $40-80k a show
Don't get it fukked up streams truly don't pay shyt

Rappers that make money are the ones that do shows nonstop and/or move merch

Doesn’t pay who?
UMG says that they are making dumb money from streaming. People are buying artists catalogues for dumb money for streaming.

You people listen to artists who have t recouped saying they don’t make anything of streams :skip:
That’s like saying CDs didn’t pay anything cause a lot of rappers made nothing to Pennie’s per cd from cd sales.

Are we not discussing the artists? No shyt the labels make all the money from streaming that's the point:mjlol:

This goes beyond just rappers. Artist of all genres have complained about the payouts from streaming, which ain't much better than they payouts they used to get from physical sales

These dudes on here don’t think rap pays

Bro was on for a year and already ran up a few M’s
It really depends.

I don't think the music industry as a whole is profitable.

The top artists are eating.

Documents can be doctored.

I heard of Pooh Sheisty's name, but never heard a song, and know he has to pay out over $100,000 to some victims of some crime.
