@FearedBuck @SongFinderBot

Streamers making sure Adin Ross don’t win the “best collabed stream” with Donald Trump 💀

@DrawBeatsOff Yeah but limited spots for collabs, they’re fumbling forreal. Need to just allow unlimited collabs

@thebootlegboy I thought everyone has Distrokid

why am i paying for like 4 different distributors, this scene is such a mess

@eigojon13 because different artists I collab with use different distributors

@thebootlegboy Why?

@Dark_winterr distrokid, amuse etc. all have subscription costs

@thebootlegboy Paying for?

at least we've got snacks...

and nothing at all...

@jckmrtn good

@thebootlegboy I created one and YouTube doesn't recommend my videos.

the AI music channels are taking over, the algorithm loves them

@oatmellofi 'home alone' is probably the biggest i've noticed recently, but lots popping up.

@thebootlegboy can you give an example? haven't even seen one popular one yet

@arbeemonkey thanks homie!

@thebootlegboy That "medicine" track with blocktane is fire

A lot of people wait for me to collab with someone and then work with them…go find these talented artists yourselves, don’t wait for me to always put you on

@99belfa @bradenisfake someone said it's 50 releases I think, just got mine as I hit 50 so could be that?

OMG got my “this is” playlist teehee

they could definitely get rid of half this shit right here...

JD Cliffe might just be up next 👀

The worst thing about Instagram Reels is that it rewards lazy content. If I spend 2 hours on a video it will always perform worse than one that takes 5 mins to film

@lovematt____ then they shelved the beat when I pushed back :')

so happy Jon Bellion is calling out the labels for fucking over producers. Turned down a few releases recently because if you offer me 2% for a beat I wrote, you can literally go fuck yourself :)
