It's Friday! Before we get to the video, just a reminder that I've been streaming every Sunday in August at twitch.tv/DoseofBuckley, so join me this weekend at 2pm Eastern as I take questions from the audience or discuss various topics, and play some footage of me chuckin' axes (it's oddly mesmerizing).
On to this week's video! Here's the description:
Spotify's Daniel Ek has said that "some artists that used to do well in the past may not do well in this future landscape, where you can’t record music once every three to four years and think that’s going to be enough", suggesting that if they want to "do well", they're going to have to make more music. But isn't that convenient for Spotify to say, given that they benefit more than anyone else when an artist releases more music?
Fun fact: this is my 9th video about a song, musician or the music industry in 5 months. It's actually the most I've discussed music in my entire career on YouTube! So, if you'd like, feel free to yell at the goobers that go "remember when your channel was about music!?"
Oh, and I've teased this a little on Social Media, but I'll just flat out tell you: my final video of the month will be a Musical Autopsy of "WAP". I kinda thought Baby Benny reading the lyrics on his show would ruin it for me, but I've come up with a different angle on the song that I think is far more interesting than "Eww! The lyrics are icky!" And I've got a fun Patreon-exclusive for you in a couple weeks discussing what my old pal Kreayshawn's been up to!
