Despite what everyone on ATRL thinks, there is no playlisting “payola”. Yes, an artist wants to be on the biggest playlist in a prime spot, but that's not something you can just pay for. Apple/Spotify have full control over that. There are certain things an artist/label can do, like Spotify sessions, etc. that might help them get better playlisting, but other than that, it's out if their hands. “We have great relationships with all of the labels, managers and artists. Our ultimate goal is to give fans the music they want to hear and our playlists are a reflection of that. We have the tools to know when a song isn’t working on a particular playlist and when the audience isn’t responding to it. We have a democratic and unique approach to playlisting, so for us it’s all about good music. Labels can not (or don’t) pay to get on Spotify’s owned and operated playlists.” https://www.forbes.com/sites/tomward/2017/07/31/how-do-songs-end-up-on-spotify-playlists-anyway/?sh=4bf90cc0bbb7 I've been looking into this, and would be curious to hear your thoughts, because I just don't believe labels aren't monetarily incentivizing streaming services to push individual songs. Considering anywhere from 70 to 80% of the tracks comprising Spotify's biggest playlists come from four major labels (https://www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2022/05/major-labels-control-70-87-of-tracks-on-major-spotify-playlists.html), it's evident they have at least some sway in placement. Then there's the examples of songs losing streams daily yet remaining on playlists week after week while others gain without receiving proper support from playlists. Given the numbers, I just don't see how you can say Apple or Spotify have 'full control.' OT: I'm making the conscious choice not to listen to any snippets. I'm eagerly waiting for the songs' release next week, cannot come soon enough
KellBell Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 Just listened to the new clip!!! Sounds good. So far liking mine more.
ATRL Administrator Ryan Posted April 7, 2023 ATRL Administrator Posted April 7, 2023 Oh those clips are amazing.
badbitch51 Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 her new profile image on Spotify is v Stevie Nicks-y.

Julianna Calm Down Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 People are saying, based on the snippets that it sounds like mix of her previous records. They heard Breakaway, MD, Stronger and MOL. Based on the snippets, I think they’re very MOL-y. She sounds soulful and her vocals are richly produced it sounds.
MJ Boston Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 Mine sounds amazing! I already love it from the clip and it only took a few listens to get stuck in my head.

I think they haven't updated the main one yet because the WCCA pic still comes up when you search her name. The new one shows up as the artist profile photo for the m/m playlist or if you play one of the m/m clips on a large screen, it shows up as the background image.

I am truly hoping she is a writer or co-writer for every track. It's been six years, I want to hear from her directly, if that makes sense.

It show when I login to Spotify through a browser
Fortify Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 The more I hear of these the more I like. https://twitter.com/kellyclarkson/status/1644384545746059285?s=46&t=xLzfXQXmdar8h6JVnldmfA

Capitalism knows no boundaries.
Nerevanin Posted April 7, 2023 Posted April 7, 2023 Sounds great. So far my favorite preview (out od the ones I heard, I'm kind of losing track of all the leaks, previews, snippets etc)
