Snoop Dogg Says He Barely Got $45,000 For 1 Billion Streams On Spotify

[BK The Great]

 

[Deltron]

Sounds about right

 

[Higher Tech]

If anyone knows the business, how does this translate to radio spins? For instance, is there a payout for having hella radio play?

 

[Tasha And]

Artist better go on strike or sum

 

[Supa]

I think Roc and Alchemist made like 50k in a day just selling out the vinyl for their album. Surprised more artists don't go with a direct to consumer model.

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

it sounds crazy but then you gotta think.... how much money would he have made if everybody could just napster his shyt

technology... you love it when it works.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Streams are only good for promoting your shyt
45K for 1billie streams is bloody rape

 

[MenacingMonk]

That's very low for a billion streams.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

That's very low for a billion streams.

Yeah something not adding up. Some ppl in the industry were saying it’s

 

[PatCake]

I bet the streaming services and the labels are eating well though. Billions of dollars from Subscribers and Advertisers every month and yet they are never accountable for fair payments to artists because only they know how to calculate/manipulate them numbers.

 

[Black smoke and cac jokes]

I can believe that is what Snoop got in his pocket because he has never seemed to be good at negotiation contracts. The label takes the rest because Spotify pay out rate is higher than that:

How much does Spotify pay per stream?

Spotify pays artists between $0.003 - $0.005 per stream on average.
That works out as an approx revenue split of 70/30 - so that’s 70% to the artist/rights holders and 30% to Spotify

1 bn x 0,003 = 30m

 

[backbreaker65]

Who else eating is the question.

1. Producer
2. Interscope
3. Dre
4. Writer or writers
4. What was his cut per record or album

And so on
