Snoop Dogg dumps Spotify for Tune.FM, calls out streaming giant over earnings

Snoop Dogg has announced that he is leaving Spotify to bring his entire music collection to a new platform called Tune.FM. This platform is part of a new wave of music streaming that aims to give artists more control and allow them to earn more money from their work. Snoop clarified why he made this switch, expressing frustration with how little Spotify pays artists. “I don’t f**k with Spotify anymore. I’m only on Tune.FM,” Snoop told Billboard, highlighting how he received only $45,000 despite his songs being played a whopping billion times on Spotify.

Snoop’s partnership with Tune.FM could change how artists share their music and earn money. His new single, “Spaceship Party,” will be the first song available exclusively on the Tune.FM platform, marking a fresh start for both him and his fans. He also plans to move all of his other songs to this new site, which suggests a significant shift in how artists might approach sharing their music in the future. Tune.FM operates on a new system designed to help artists keep more of the money they make from their music.

This approach aligns with Snoop Dogg’s innovative mindset, making it a perfect fit for him. “We are thrilled to welcome Snoop Dogg as the face of Tune.FM,” said Andrew Antar, the founder and CEO of Tune.FM. “Snoop is a true pioneer who always explores new opportunities. He understands the future, and we’re excited to take on this adventure together.” As one of the most influential figures in the music industry, Snoop’s move to Tune.FM could signal a bigger change coming for artists.

BuYufu turns the symptoms of love into a soul-filled dance with “Side Effects May Include”

In “Side Effects May Include,” BuYufu has made the irrational symptoms of hopelessly falling in love playful and highly musical. Love’s a hell of a drug, and it has some weird side effects. Missed calls, dancing on the spot, and acting completely out of character. It’s a simple idea, but the track really brings it to life.

It’s written as a song for a 70s soul club performance, influenced by crossover soul, northern soul, Afro-Cuban soul, and Latin soul. Horns, strings, shuffle guitar, Latin percussion, Hammond organ, and an active drum break surround the song’s central feeling. The arrangement keeps the song feeling lively, but the vintage influence is very clear.

“Side Effects May Include,” has subtle callbacks for those who have been following the project. This connection gives the song a sense of finality. It’s warm, raw, and deliberately human in its subject matter, capturing the odd thrill of love while showing how an old-school soul feeling can still speak naturally to the present.
