Snoop Dogg is going where the money is. Snoop Dogg, who acquired Death Row Records in 2022, shared the low payout he received from streaming. After receiving 1 billion streams on Spotify, he recalls being compensated only $45,

After crossing the 1 billion mark, Snoop Dogg revealed his supposed shocking payout. However, yesterday (February 27), a representative for Spotify finally came out to address Snoop’s claim that he only received $45,000 for one billion streams. In a statement to TMZ, the spokesperson said:

Already, Tune.FM has attracted hundreds of thousands of active users, reinforcing the demand for a fairer, artist-first streaming model. The platform has been home to exclusive releases from respected artists like Nappy Roots and the Summer of Love compilation, featuring rare and never-before-heard tracks from legendary musicians.

Snoop Dogg has officially denounced Spotify as he teams up with a new streaming service to release his music. On Thursday, Snoop Dogg was named the face of Tune.FM as the platform expanded into the Web3 market.

Spotify has responded to Snoop Dogg's alleging that he sees just $45,000 from one billion streams on the music platform. In December 2023, the rapper appeared on podcast Business Untitled, where he claimed that he only receives the aforementioned amount.
