Yeah that was fun and now it’s time to do something different

You really wanna see a 50 year old continue to chase hits? Ye hasn’t been that type of artist for 15 years

No one knows Donda 2 exists

So they are more expensive and still accounted for nearly half of all album sales last year meaning they are just as impactful still as what Ye is trying to do

Old battles require new strategy

Yeah that’s their job we civilians

It’s unfinished it barely exists as is

Thats what a printer and jewel cases were for!

This the same s*** Prince was fighting for

This is a righteous cause

and Mike

But if you wanted it you could get it right now

carnival is not chasing hits

nobody played donda 2

you can get the whole yandhi album on youtube finished, this will happen with vultures. be a niche album you and me enjoy and doesnt not reach the masses or sell well

Not the same

It would be really funny if iTunes type releases made a comeback. But I mean vinyls and other old media has made a comeback, after enough time maybe it will to some degree. Albums were bs to the artist too back in the day. It wasn’t until streaming took off it was more feasible to be indépendant and not get robbed from the label on an album

Shaq Diesel too

Because people don’t buy cds because cd players are phased out of cars lol

this is hardly a new or unique strategy

B-b-but my convenience
I j-j-just wanna hit one button!!!

That doesn’t fix the root of the issue

Where the money from those sales is going is the issue

If artists were getting a respectable share from streams this wouldn’t be a conversation

streaming is honestly such a difficult thing because Spotify isnt making profit and living from investments and idk the AM numbers but i imagine its not sustanable by itself and its there because of Apple making bank in other venues

this is the world we live in, quite literally

A major artist after bouncing back could stay complacent on streaming while b****ing about the system the rest of his career or he could do something
