Billboard announces new rules for digital sales and prices

[Mike Wins]

The whole system fraudulent. If some random dude could pull this scam, what you think the labels and major management firms are doing? Except they never gonna get aired out because the streamers know the deal.

why do we even still care about "sales" in the free streaming era

there will never be anything that makes sense because Drake and Kendrick are the only ones moving units so there has to be a metric to determine who is biggest and best

if you notice, no other artists keep the lights on at any of these labels

IDK if thats true about Taylor…she was getting called out a few years ago I think

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

Either way, your bytch ass favorite rapper ain’t gonna sell millions of albums no more. Those days ended May 4, 2024.

She sells just as much physical as she does stream. One of the only ones in the industry that does that.

You do realize physicals are easier to manipulate than streams, right? There's a reason if most are saying the dsp sales are much more reliable.

She's actually the one that is responsible for these rules change lol. She had like 18 variants of her album going for a very low price and Billboard just banned that crap

They need to just look at what Travis and Nicki Minaj do, and set the rules above that and everything is covered
