I know I brought it up in a really lovely way, but this is such a hosed up situation. That’s doesn’t speak to what that payout is either, is that the amount Nipsey himself is receiving or is that what gets paid out to his management and then they wittle it down from there?

What’s the conversion for streaming? Like... of those million plays, how many turn around and buy the album for later? One thing I like about bandcamp is that they encourage ownership in any number of ways. If the artist is giving away a song (pay what you like or not), you can download it sure, but bandcamp says hey “buy it and it’s in your collection.” That appeals to me and a certain kind of customer, they also push “hey you’re supporting the artist when you buy this. Even for a dollar.” When I started realizing that free songs didn’t end up in my collection, I started paying a dollar here and there more because I want to show that support, etc.

There’s an issue w rap culture in regards to the “it’s me alone in this” mindset. The punk scene in my city has a Facebook page/YouTube channel that is just about posting videos from local shows. The 5 or so contributors go to lots of shows, record a video of a whole song, and post it. It’s gotten me into several groups, I rely on it in a big way for finding out about shows, etc. It kills me that the rap scene here, or elsewhere, doesn’t have this kind of community to it. The zero-sum attitude in succeeding in rap helps to fuel beef and antagonism. gently caress that guy, because you can’t BOTH be eating.

More and more, the BasedGod approach of releasing tons of free music, being positive and promoting positivity, and just really enjoying the art of rap and its culture. That seems like a much more sustainable attitude. Sorry, I just see stuff like those payouts and it reminds me how much corporations gently caress people who are creating some real poo poo.

I'm assuming it's what the artist gets. That YouTube number lines with with what's been alluded to by alot of top YouTube people. The money has been gone from that.

I would say about zero because why would you buy it for later when you can just... stream it again later. whenever you want. you can also download it to play at any time if you're paying for a service
