The thing I don’t understand is why Spotify has to be the label’s slave. The labels are taking a huge margin from both Spotify who is the distributor and the artist who is the creator.
Why can’t Spotify just remove the label as the middle man and give artists a bigger chunk? That would attract artists and Spotify gets to increase their share a bit as well.
Isn’t a label just a glorified pimp for an artist?
- Polyisoprene 8y agoFor pop music marketing is everything. The major labels are the curators of pop music. Spotify owning/promoting artists would be a big change and it’s probably too early for pure social media promotion. For ambient/classical music Spotify is already doing it. Placing an order on music they believe their subscribers would like from unknown artists.
