How much selling 6 million albums gets you + 'Behind the Music' reboot + A viral TikTok video selling as NFT for $500K
Bailey, John and Tyler are back bringing you Episode 30 of The All Punked Up Podcast. In this episode, the boys talk about MTV announcing the reboot of the classic docuseries 'Behind The Music' while sharing what bands they hope to see on future episodes.
Musicians around the world held protests outside of Spotify offices to continue the ongoing “Justice at Spotify” campaign which pushes for a 1 cent per stream payout. After the protests, Spotify launched a new site, Loud & Clear, to increase transparency and shed light on the complicated economics of music streaming. The crew discusses both of these things while sharing their opinions on each. You may or may not agree with them, but that's ok.
This leads into the three of them discussing the recent Chevelle news that guitarist and vocalist Pete Loeffler shared. Apparently, Chevelle sold over 6 million albums and saw $0 as a result. What the f***?!
Finally, remember that viral TikTok video that saw that one dude skateboarding to Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" while drinking Ocean Spray? Well, he's selling that video as an NFT for $500K, but there's a major caveat.
All of this and much more in this episode of The All Punked Up Podcast. So go ahead. Just push play. Oh, and smash that follow button. That's what the kids say, right?
