This more controversial aspect of Armstrong's performances is reflected in the BBC setlist, which opens with When It's Sleepy Time Down South. Although it was popular with audiences, the song had courted controversy for offering an idealised vision of the American South and using the racial epithet "darkies". In the 1950s, as the civil rights movement was taking hold in the US, protestors even burned copies of the song. Surprise, artists of colour who were raised in the segregated US South experienced segregation, racism and had to find ways to stand out from bullshit like blackface performers -- while still delivering that exact same entertainment because that's what the public wanted (at the time). At least the BBC isn't questioning Armstrong's talent in this. But it's still exhausting to read😞 npub1ulh4ya0l5lwzm3w3suqyfh55c9m9arxawjnp2dfv3fktgeezftpswrgv6x wohali https://assets.timeloop.cafe/timeloop.cafe/media_attachments/files/114/690/089/721/828/389/original/8c3c494d3688605b.png npub1ulh4ya0l5lwzm3w3suqyfh55c9m9arxawjnp2dfv3fktgeezftpswrgv6x wohali happy pride, here's a shitty pasta dish https://assets.timeloop.cafe/timeloop.cafe/media_attachments/files/114/643/219/543/201/631/original/8aa4cd8264ae83ce.webp npub1ulh4ya0l5lwzm3w3suqyfh55c9m9arxawjnp2dfv3fktgeezftpswrgv6x wohali Spotted in Mexico: A food cart made from the cage of a Sun Enterprise 10000 Server https://old.reddit.com/r/retrocomputing/comments/1l1ssoo/spotted_in_mexico_a_food_cart_made_from_the_cage/ https://assets.timeloop.cafe/timeloop.cafe/media_attachments/files/114/637/130/544/344/670/original/baa22f82eeefb76d.jpeg npub1ulh4ya0l5lwzm3w3suqyfh55c9m9arxawjnp2dfv3fktgeezftpswrgv6x wohali "Over the past decade, the 100,000th-ranked* artist on Spotify has seen their generated royalties multiply by over 10x – increasing from well under $600 in 2014 to almost $6,000 in 2024." "The number of uploaders to Spotify, which is now nearly 12 million. " ok so, if you are a Spotify 1%er you get $6k/yr. You need to be top 0.2% to earn a living. In 2024 that is 22,100 people. And that assumes you're a single artist uploader, not a band, no manager, no label taking cuts. So you're probably seeing half of that IF you're very lucky. So basically Spotify makes nothing for artists.
