Which I'm sure compromised the lion's share of that 3.4M, not streams.

There’s a lot of money in music it’s just the artists don’t get as big a piece of pie as they probably should.

He hadn’t even really got to the bag he stood to make…fukking idiot

It's pointless to speculate on if he got the money through streaming or doing shows if you don't know anything at all about his deal.
For all we know it might all be an advance and zero from shows and streaming. Or it might all be from streaming cause his deal is structured so that they only take his tour money. It can be in a million different ways.

That's why the OG's in rap are mad. Method almost had a damn aneurysm about that shyt.

To say streaming doesn't pay is stupid, it's just to check the labels and streaming companies financial statements.
There's also reports from artists themselves showing how much streaming companies pay the owner of the music.
Back in the days artists used to say they got little to nothing from their cd's too, it's all about your contract.

Welcome to capitalism. Back in the day, that same artist would be worth a quarter of that.

They aren’t. The show money is where it’s at.
