“Today, artists only earn 12% of what the industry earns,” the artist reports on his Instagram account.
It’s time to free music from this oppressive system. It’s time to take control and build our own system
Already in 2016, his album The life of Pablo was, at least, at first, only available on the Tidal platform, but it was soon added to other music streaming platforms.
Back to mp3
The enclosure can be found at this address and marks a step back. To listen to titles on it, you must first save them in mp3 format.
All music and not just Yee’s album (the rapper’s self-proclaimed nickname) can be heard on it.
It also allows you to add effects to the titles you listen to and has four audio outputs. For example, voices can be isolated, and certain sounds raised or lowered. It’s almost a mini mixer.
67,000 speakers are currently on sale, and the artist claims that they manufacture “3000 a day”.
