    I mean, Kanye will be fine but if he wants people to understand these new idea I don’t think it is helping. I’m not saying this to hate on Kanye.

    most only truly understand and believe when they see

    ye’s target audience is not the common person right now, all he needs the common person to do is simply digitally react and bring attention to him, which as a result puts public pressure on these powerful people to take a call with ye

    ye’s said it in multiple recent interviews, that words can fail to convey things, some things just need to be shown. He wouldn’t have any need to do this right now unless he was being blocked from contacting the people he wants to contact

    man Kanye has literally been doing this s*** for one day can we not

    Frank became fully independent at the cost of the label
    Jay set up Tidal which pays artists 4x as much as Spotify and has consistently talked about owning masters and has helped other artists get ownership
    Chance has done more than kanye at this point

    You mean the Tidal that would’ve been a loss venture for Jay if Kanye didn’t come through and triple the subscriber count with TLOP?

    Tidal doesn't do anything on the label side tho right? They just take less of a cut than other services

    first off that isn't true - he doubled subscriber count and a significant amount of that was because people signed up for free trials

    second why does that even matter? its still Jay doing significantly more for ownership and artist empowerment than Kanye has done

    sure
    but I think its far more common for artists who actually have that leverage to still make these mistakes

    theres the two angles

    one is that leverage needs to increase. its already increasing because artists can get their music distributed for essentially nothing now

    two is that artist who have that leverage need to have the background knowledge to make smart choices with what they agree to

    Sometimes its more comfortable for the label to handle all the business stuff
    Unless you have a really strong team behind you you may not know where to start regarding distribution/marketing/touring etc

    mmm fair
    I do think hes in a unique position as an artist that he could probably get those calls though. at the end of the day hes worth an enormous amount of money
    5 years ago sure I get the venting on twitter
    but now when hes a billionaire and in those corporate circles already. I just feel like he has the ability to approach it without it being a public show
    I know a ton of people see Kanye tweeting the way hes tweeting rn and dismiss it as crazy and unhinged and I feel like this is something that absolutely shouldn't get labeled like that

    bro as im sure you know, when you are an artist on his level, money does not matter at all when it comes to getting your masters back

    he’s stated multiple times he’s already tried to buy them back and they won’t let him. You think that because he’s a billionaire those people automatically respect him enough to just hand this freedom back to him or take a call with him about it just out of pure respect for his status, which is just a fantasy

    the public’s reaction to this does not matter, all that matters is that it gets a reaction

    yea just a lower cut and I think the hi fi cost lets them lift royalties a little higher as well

    still makes a difference but yea
