Trevor Noah did an enlightening piece about streaming on his DAILY SHOW last night. It explained exactly how the streaming system works for the artist and how they get practically nothing for each stream. Then he had Aloe Blacc take on the Music Streaming Business with a remix of his hit song.

Aloe Blacc knows a thing or two about the unfairly small profit that musicians make from streaming services. He calls the integrity of the music streaming industry into question with The Daily Show-exclusive remix to his hit song “I Need A Dollar."

Trevor's breakdown of how the streaming system works was educational. Hopefully, it is available somewhere on line.

The more things change, the more they remain the same. In another thread we discussed how artists got ripped off by labels in the fifies and sixties. In this video, Aloe Blacc says it is still happening in the streaming era.
