As a music fan, I would love to see an essay/guide on how music fans can be better advocates for bands and artists. Sending a message on Spotify doesn't really get you anywhere if you know what I mean.
As a former Warner Bros. Records employee who is married to a Warner Bros. Records/Sire artist I hope he finally gets his royalties Spotify owes him. He gets his songs played globally at least a million times a day. I hope this helps.
You raise an important point about the role of convenience in shaping the music industry today. While it's true that streaming platforms have made music more accessible, theyβve also de-valued the work of artists in many ways. And now it's becoming more apparent.
Refusing to rely solely on these platforms and finding alternative ways to connect with fans could indeed be a powerful statement. Itβs a tough balance, but fostering direct relationships with listeners might be a step toward re-claiming value and fairness for artists and in fact, music itself. π€
