it blew my mind when Russ tweeted about the company that owns billboard owns loads of other companies like Variety and s***
basically proving to some extent the game is rigged, which also may explains why so many artists opt to sign to major labels even if the deals are terrible because they can "help you out" with the s*** Russ is complaining about
the music industry is dirty man
I don’t really buy that streams are being mass faked. I’m sure it happens a bit but I doubt it’s that big of a thing. If it’s that easy/commonplace why does Coi Leray always sell 10K?
Does he state any reason or speculation as to why his sales show a -10k difference? Or give any particularly specific evidence? Not saying it did or didn't happen.
I doubt there's higher up lizard people seated at a large roundtable going "Man, we really have to sabotage that Russ guy right now."
Travis 2nd biggest solo song off UTOPIA is “I KNOW” (2nd to MY EYES) and that song is straight Russ cosplay.
From the beat to the hook. That’s a bit of irony to this whole situation. Just sayin.
what the actual f*** are you talking about

Prob bc the label has to care to invest in you to fix the game
I think of the music industry like WWE. In there, you have to spend years to have crafted the right gimmick to show somethin to Vince and the higher ups. And once you do, then they’re gonna force feed you down everyone’s throats
Liked his earlier work not into it now. Btw he's Italian I think
Italy is Europe’s Mexico

Hi russ
who tf listens to russ
Don’t see Travis anywhere in those tweets lol
op click baiting
I use the back cover in my iTunes
if this woulda been the cover I may have at least skimmed thru the intro
You’ve got to be so willfully ignorant to think labels aren’t buying and botting streams.
Like doja cat says all her fans are losers and does everything you’re not supposed to do to maintain mainstream appeal and I’m supposed to believe there’s no f***ery in her new track going #1
You know damn well her label f***ing panicked following the pedo bf and fan bashing controversies and peddled hella money to maintain the illusion that their cash cow is still popping.
We should audit these niggas honestly

Been known
They also have % in streaming platforms so they make good money on streams while the artist gets crumbs
they spend the money but its not rlly on the album. like if someone wants a cactus jack hat, they might be cool w paying $20 for it. what's rlly going on is some guy is buying a hat for $20, but by calling the hat's price $17 and throwing in a copy of the album for $3, some guy buying a hat now counts for album sales.
and it's not like dude is listening to the album more, likely he's just going to stream it anyways, like he would have done with no hat. but now he gets counted twice, for streams and for the purchase.
i mean if u can pull it off its just the smart thing to do, so im not gonna hate on it. it does basically count some ppl twice tho, so thats why ppl treat it like cheating.
U acting like people are rich or teens buying albums, dey tryna support the artist, if u buy merch it should come w the album and count
Yal really being super nerdy about it
