Spotify doesn’t pay the artists, the labels do. They decide how much they make via Spotify. Besides, the royalty rate is only 5% bigger, which isn’t worth bragging about.

People getting out of a long-term serious relationship and deciding way too fast that Rebound Person is The One They Were Waiting For and immediately overcommitting is a tale as old as time.

No. Lol.

Well, this sounds pretty awful for the artists. I hadn't considered the shareholder issue. The more I learn about Tidal, the more disgusted I get.

Who is going to stop them? One time I volunteered at a food tent at a graduation. I was cursed out at least 10 times because I was told not to allow anyone in until the commencement was called to an end. I was body shamed. My mama was talked about. I was told I had no clue how much they paid for their kid to attend…

And there it is.

Exactly. He didn't mean she's a slut-slut, just like a girl or woman, which he simply finds synonymous with slut.

Where was the guy body-shaming in this?

Part of what makes his statement so sad is that it's pretty clear that he was using "slut" as a random synonym for "girl" or "woman." Her response gives me hope, though.

Scandal needs to kill off a character to get interesting. Not Jake, preferably Quinn and definitely Fitz

I...don't think this is about the fact that he's black tbh

Her feelings on Kanye the fashion designer have been known for some time. What what you will about how she expresses herself, but I also think he's ridiculous for this alone:
