    Man this is going over your head. By that argument literally everything an artist does is marketing. I’m talking about organic remixing vs manufactured remixing

    it’s not organic if making money is a motive

    I'm sick of seeing this attack on artist in the streaming era and tryna hold up this ideal of "legitimate sales" and what's respectable to do.

    Y'all not buying music but getting angry at artist for using bundles and remixes to help supplement that lose in revenue and attention.

    People want everything to be free but these folks got bills to pay and hype to keep up. If you want the gimmicks to stop boycott companies until they give more cuts to artist or boycott streaming services til they pay more.

    Otherwise stop tryna police something that affects no one

    How r we not buying the music?
    Artist get paid from streams. The value of a stream is something they have to work on as an industry.

    I buy merch, concert tickets and vinyl so I do support the artists I like.

    Lol an artist liking a song and choosing to remix it and putting it out. For example da baby remixing Spotemgotem track unofficially which then became official after.

    LNX is literally pulling themes out of a hat to see if he can create a new version to increase streams.

    well yes he openly said he’s here to make money

    Fam I did not say that. I said in response to free saying that no one buys music. I said by streaming people are buying music. The lack of value from a stream is a different story.

    Lmaoooo okay that’s extremely naive of you if you think Interscope didn’t tell DaBaby (an interscope artist) to hop on BeatBox (by another interscope artist) because it was hot on TikTok or whatever

    LNX is not pulling themes out of a hat, he’s tapping into a market that is run unofficially by the fan bases and making money off of it in a time when artists ain’t making s***.
