Is anyone else's music streaming service's algorithm when you put your music on shuffle so fucked? It's like it knows who my number one artist of the year is and I'll have to go through, like, 100 different songs by other artists before I get ONE of theirs.
That said I hate the way people talk about Ed in general (like they feel the need to preface saying they like him with an explanation about how they don’t actually like him THAT much) but especially the swifties who are like “oh well maybe I actually AM interested in this album now” just because he’s working with Aaron…..
Anyway I love Ed Sheeran and it’s not a guilty pleasure for me I genuinely just like him and I think he’s so talented and a great person!
i didn't post my spotify wrapped yesterday!! ive finally broke my curse of my top artist never having a song in my top 5
i did split like 4 months this year with apple music again but i think it's accurate overall just some places moved a bit, from lastfm the last 5 artists rounding out my top 10 are nerd connection, woodz, kai, lexie liu, and glen check!
perfume - nct dojaejung
magician - lexie liu
kitsch - ive
save me, kill me - cix
spicy - aespa
honestly i think my soty is actually my number 6 song this year, it's maybe i'm lonely - rachel chinouriri
omg last year i didn't get any artist messages but i was scammed because i was supposed to get one from seventeen at least but this year i got 13 and i love the format of them telling you ur top song by them too after the message that was really cute
i recorded it all because i always record my wrapped now but the messages were from ive, txt, p1harmony, aespa, glen check (i was so surprised both at the fact that they're one of my top artists but also that they made a video asjkfhsdf), dpr ian, enhypen, tinashe, ateez, rachel chinouriri, taemin, cix, stayc
for artists that are starting out it's really a struggle to live off of music because none of these music platforms pay you fairly for streams unless that person has something else on the side (another job, patreon, merch, maybe doing concerts etc) they probably wouldn't make money and these platforms don't help these people and push them to establish themselves in the industry and making people find out about their music the only artists they care about are the big ones who some at this point make a lot of money and don't need spotify money because at the end of the day they aren't doing much from that anyways 😭 and it's very sad how evil this industry is especially to up and coming artists this is why you need passion and drive to pursue music because it can be so disheartening because you are essentially betting on something that you don't know if it's gonna flourish and sometimes having talent is not enough because having connections is what will eventually (and sometimes) make you get there
