Uploading my manosphere podcast as we speak

Interesting..

RIP Empire

what’s the catch

am very curious. should i move from distrokid to this

Better than a few other distribution services tho so still good compare to the market

💀 yea that’s odd if it’s not leveraging any roc nation connections to market either

f*** the Roc

No up front costs is dope

Thanks to Hov for signing me I really appreciate it

Does this mean I'm signed to Jay Z?

It’s making me upload a picture of me throwing up the roc wtf

Wow the fineprint says we have to tweet out hate for Tory Lanez and Drake 3 times a week

this or dinner with jay z

He yapping (even though distros should be his area of expertise)
For smaller/brand new artists it makes perfect sense

You have to pay to use every Distro that gives an 100% royalty rate (Amuse used to be free & 100% but they stopped that tier a couple years ago)

For an artist who doesn't know if they'll actually make money it's better to temporarily give up that 15% than to pay $25 for the year or to pay $9.99 per release

It's easy to change distros too, so if a time comes where you're actually making real money, you can just switch to a different distro

I'm sure folks who start making bread will definitely switch to a one time fee per upload or AWAL or something, but there's no point worrying about losing 15% of nothing

Wym you can “just switch”, Nah Jay-Z is coming for your 15%, you signed the contract

Distrokid takes 0.

I’m taking the dinner

its time for KTT2 DISTRO

Distrokid got upfront costs with the subscription tiers I believe

Ktt2 got too much untapped potential

yea its a flat fee. There are some free ones though and some that take 10% or less. 15% adds up fast when you get a decent number of streams. If you dont even get some sort of roc nation access or benefit i dont see the point.
