This week on My Point Four Cents, Dustin Boyer, Maddie Elyse, Andrew Southworth and Matt Bacon talk about how labels are no longer chasing TikTok virality, but instead focusing on super fans, and how to avoid getting scammed by artist and label service companies. The episode also features an interview with Sam Duboff, the Global Head of Marketing & Policy at Spotify, where he talks about how Spotify actually pays artists, how the 1,000 stream threshold works, the 2026 Loud&Clear report and more.
