Spotify has created a platform and an ecosystem where AI-generated music streamed only by bots can net 10 million dollars. Meanwhile Spotify has demonetized 80% of its catalogue, causing real, human musicians to lose their already paltry royalties.

Marcus Thuram: "la situation en France est triste, très grave. C'est la triste réalité de notre société aujourd'hui. Il faut aller voter et surtout en tant que citoyen que ce soit vous ou moi, faire en sorte que le RN ne passe pas." @franceinfo

Best speech/moment undoubtedly goes to the unstoppable @raye who’s advocacy for a better fairer world for music and greater recognition, respect & reward for songwriters is truly rightful & truly heroic. Thank U Raye🙏✊👏.

"You waste your days away on things so small;
These concerns are no concerns at all.
The demons gather round to wreck your day,
But let me show you this fear for what it really is and see them fall away
...and it's over"

If we want quality music somebody is gonna have to pay for it. Streaming services don’t pay properly, labels want a bigger cut than ever and just sit and wait for you to go viral, TikTok doesn’t pay properly, and touring is getting prohibitively expensive for most artists.
'The Killing Moon' and 'Don't Change' in the same ten minutes? @OfficialHuey, my man... 👏 @BBC6Music
