During the pandemic, we couldn’t gig. The Swedish now-billionaire scolded musicians for not working hard enough, invested your $ in military AI, and to this day, won’t pay. And oh yeah, he had fake Swedish “artists” piggyback off streams from the legendary dues-paying artists. #spotifysucks
*HOW IS SPOTIFY JUST LIKE MUZAK?*

Spotify and Muzak are far more alike than you think.
This is just one of the MANY REVELATIONS in Liz Pelly's book, MOOD MACHINE.

*MY CHAPTER-BY-CHAPTER TAKE ON THE SPOTIFY BOOK*
www.nickdematteo.com/musicisnotag...
Wanna know why Spotify is so messed up?
This week's BONUS MxTRA is my chapter-by-chapter take on Liz Pelly's MOOD MACHINE.
Think of it as an AUDIO BOOK IMPROV. Because I do NOT hold back.
#spotifysucks
I'm glad I left this despicable leeching platform when I did. You should too, as an artist AND as a fan. The company hates musicians and loves money. Period. There's no excuse to support it. None.

I cancelled my subscription a few months back after the ads were reported.
They say it doesn't go against their standards.
I think they need new fucking standards.
Even though the ads are no longer running, their lack of ethics has ensured I'll never return as their customer.

Fuck Joe Rogan & the miniature horse he rode in on
Spotify paying musicians jack shit per stream & then handing this overrated hack a hundred million dollar contract is the reason I cancelled that shit & you should too
Plus the founder now invests in weapons research😒
#CancelSpotify #SpotifySucks
Do you depend on Spotify royalties for your rent and food money? No, and you never will. So why the hell is your music still on there? #spotifysucks #oligarchy

SPOTIFY SUCKS. The money they make from the music you work so hard on is being invested in military AI Technology. Consider doing the right thing?
You can treat your beloved music like those brown throw-away napkins at a barbecue joint, or you can value it like a classy human by paying on bandcamp or buying physical media. Which is it? #spotifysucks #indiemusic
Example: Tidal has over 110 million tracks but AI says "Tidal failed because of its limited selection". Monopolies and billionaires are bad and AI feeds you what they want you to think. #spotifysucks #indiemusic
#BoycottSpotify ICE = American Gestapo #SpotifySucks
THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!
#SPOTIFYSUCKS
We cancelled a long time ago, around the time it came out they were paying Joe Rogan $$$$$.
#TIDAL pays artists more, y'all. #SpotifySucks

Uh-oh. Get that thumb scrolling, uncomfortable reality here. #spotifysucks #musiciansky
Lies! I'm a dirty liar. Here's a new track, a noisy and discombobulated (yet thoroughly enjoyable) sonic mess. Dedicated to some good musician friends in South Africa.

Spotify wants you in prison for skipping lines of code. In other words, they don't want you to control what code runs on your computer. #DMCA #Spotify #Spotifysucks

Too late. Already switched to Tidal. Turns out they also pay the artists better. #SpotifySucks
switched back a few months ago and best decision ive made #SpotifySucks
Another contender in what could be a post-Spotify music ecosystem. Check it out.

The black print on white background total earnings from Distrokid over 5 years: $9.34
After amassing my whole fortune of *checks notes* $9.34 over 5 years...
Today I cancelled @distrokid.com and removed my library. Find a bunch of it at litui.bandcamp.com if you want. =)

…maybe more money to the artists? No? That tracks. Apple Music or die, better quality, better pay for artists. #spotifysucks
DO YOU Want? …. to directly support the artists you love? Ditch the streaming giants & head to Bandcamp! You actually PAY artists when you buy their music there! Unlike Spotify. ➡️ richallenmusic.bandcamp.com #Bandcamp #SupportIndieMusic #MusicLovers #BuyMusic #SupportArtists #SpotifySucks
