Ep.70 - DITD Bites, Vol. 3 - a podcast by The 5th Element Podcast Network/Hip-Hop By The Numbers

For this DITD Bites, we conversate on some recent phenomena. This year, labels have been implementing Deluxe Editions weeks, sometimes days after the initial album release, why are they doing this and why is it working?

Spotify CEO Daniel Ek has commented on wax his opinions on the lack of streaming pay for artists and his answer, whilst unsurprising, are really worrying coming from him.

Lastly, how much weight do we put on a rapper being "quotable"?
