'but between playlists and just sheer popularity yeah, Spotify is definitely where the most people listen to my music.' - Chelsea Gohd, aka Foxanne

Spotify for Artists also enables musicians to 'add fundraising goals to your Spotify page, links out from Spotify, add your own bio, and other materials you would have in an EPK.

She then noted, 'not that those are easy to get onto.' This set of tools, Gohd explained, 'allow you to pretty easily apply to editorial playlists with new music. 'Spotify’s main draw for me an an artist,' she said, 'is certainly not the pay, but its Spotify for Artists platform.' I also wanted to know about the experience of being an artist on Spotify, and Gohd explained one reason why people would stick with Spotify despite its low rate. Gohd said 'Amazon Music pays less than Apple, but still more than Spotify,' before noting that the payments aren't always the same, as 'sometimes Amazon has paid less than Spotify.' Spotify's rate is (clearly) not the best perk Gohd, who's got music on all the major platforms including Spotify, talked to me on the office Slack, confirmed that 'Apple Music pays quite a bit more than Spotify,' before adding 'Tidal better than Apple.' She also noted that 'there are a few smaller platforms that pay more but they’re much smaller.'Īnd as for Jeff Bezos' digital jukebox? It's complicated.
