MAIN TOPIC: Spotify Is Destroying Artists

"Music is basically free to make, why pay the artists?"

Spotify is something we all look at as a very convenient app, allowing users to play any artists they want. But now that the company is huge, with tons of money...why are the artists not seeing any of that profit? How did Spotify get to this point?

Richard knows how to "hold it". Tune in next week!
