Snoop Dogg reveals how much he makes from Spotify streams

Snoop Dogg talked about Spotify and how artists’ success on the platform isn’t reflected in their earnings.

Can someone explain to me how you can have a billion streams and not a million dollars? This shit makes no sense to me“, he said. “I don’t know who the fuck is running the streaming industry, but whoever you are, you need to give us some information on how to track down this money… Because one plus one with Spotify doesn’t equal two.”

The Long Beach native continued, revealing how much he made by reaching one billion streams on Spotify. “They just sent me some money from Spotify where I hit a billion streams and it’s minus $45K.
