    While still making ludicrously little from spotify.

    “Allen’s daily Spotify earnings are $4,077, or about $1.4 million per year.”

    If that’s “ludicrously little”, I want to be as poor as she.

        What’s her cut of that?

        I don’t know, you made the comment that she’s “making ludicrously little from spotify”, so you should know.

        Also, nobody should care because: “Allen’s most recent album, No Shame, dropped in 2018.” Those are royalties for doing no work since then. She got paid handsomely by the record company for the distribution rights. She gets paid handsomely whenever she’s on concert. Ongoing royalties are a BS concept.

          She makes next to nothing from putting previous works on spotify, and more from keeping previous pictures of her feet on onlyfans. There’s another article that we were discussing further down, about the likely percentage artists get, but that wasn’t your point, since you think she should get nothing from both spotify and onlyfans. I assumed you were questioning my numbers, but you think the number should be lower, so you were questioning my use of the word “ludicrous.” I get it now!

          My main disagreement is that I’m positive now that all that 4000/day does not go to her, so she is probably not lying about the number difference. She does still make plenty off some old music in other ways, of course. To a ludicrous degree perhaps? No?
