DDG LEAKS How Much He Makes From Music.. 💰Added:
I got all them songs already.
I talked to Hitmaker. He said he wanna we we want to put it out. It's just like, you know, it got to just be like I can't just be dropping when it's can't just randomly drop. You know, I keep saying I'm being cheap like I'm paying for it.
I ain't paying out of my pocket for that.
If I was independent, this wouldn't even be a question.
Be honest.
It wouldn't even be a thought. Think about it. I mean, I'm paying for it. So, it ain't that. It's just, you know, y'all know how music industry go, bro. If it was up to me, I have a million songs out, bro. All artists go through it. All artists say that. Like when you sign to a label is way more like corporate and way more like you got to get clearances for your artwork. You got to know who took the picture. You got to get clearances for who did the beat and then you drop a song and then a random producer come out of nowhere and say, "Hey, I put the drums on this. I want some money." And then you go from here, you got to go to do this lawyer, that lawyer, connect this lawyer with this lawyer. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. It's a lot of that go into it, you know. So, if it was up to me, y'all, if it was that easy to just drop some, I would do it every week. Music is digested so quick, y'all.
This that was viral two weeks ago, we don't know about no more cuz Drake just dropped. So, what what do what the are we listening to? We listening to Drake right now, you know? So, it's like music is digested so quickly these days. It's like we don't If when I drop, if it was up to me when it comes to dropping music, bro, I would drop every week.
Even if a song only get 50,000 streams, if I'm dropping every week over time, that mother, all that gonna add up, you know, you got to look at this like money. Like streams is money.
Look at this. That's how I want to look at this. But like when you a signed artist, you don't really see the money like that. You see it, but you don't see it.
See it. You feel me? When you independent, you see every dollar. Oh, I made this much money from Apple Music, this much money from Spotify, this much money from Amazon Music, this much money from Daer, this much money from Soundcloud, this much money from a random ass TV show that play my this much money from you see every dollar.

Oh my god.
Okay, I did it.
Okay, cool.
About to show y'all.
You guys want to see how much money I made on some music? This is not This is not um It's lit.

Okay. Hold on.
I'm trying to see if they tell Okay, look overall earnings.

Okay, let me do uncheck all Spotify mother Apple. Let's just do that.
Okay, how you make it go?
Hold on. Yeah.
Okay. I see. I see. I see. I see. I see.
Yeah. The other sites they be showing a little more. This [ __ ] ain't really showing too much.
Okay. Boom. Got it. Filter. Boom. All right.
So, let's click on arguments. Let's see.
Just play. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Y'all want to see how much money arguments made?
Y want to see why I put a That's probably why I made so much money. I put that.
Let me inspect element this [ __ ] So, not the money, but it's certain codes and I don't need y'all see.
All right. Um Boom.
All right. Make sure I ain't leaking nothing. Not leaking nothing. Bada boom bada banga boom bada bang. Okay, cool.
Wait a minute.
All right.
So, Artemis made $300,000 off 62 million streams.
It was bought on iTunes 10,000 times.
Um, all that add up. When you see like when you look at like this as a art, you as a as a as a signed artist, you can see this [ __ ] You can see like if you look it's in fake [ __ ] This what the I got to fake this folk. Why? I don't even want to be like I'mma just time you out. Time time the Hendricks too [ __ ] out. You ain't got to ban him. Just time him out. time him out cuz he don't understand. But no, yeah, I don't have to fake this. This is nothing. What's the point of me faking this? It ain't no point. Okay, this is a lot of money.
But over the course of how long? I dropped this in what? When I dropped this song? 20 what? 17, right? 18. I think it was 2018. This song is eight years old. 300K in eight years is what? That's nothing, bro.
And this is this is why I'm going to get to what I'm saying. 300,000.
And and mind you, I don't even get the money for this song no more because I signed off this song and a part of my [ __ ] was for this song. Let me see. Divided by So made even more.
Eight years. That's 37,000 a year.
Whoopde-doo. You know, which I don't want to sound ungrateful or like sound like a [ __ ] or nothing, but I say that to say, you want a thousand arguments. You want a hundred arguments.
Once you get a 100 arguments, now we talking. You feel me? Now we talking money. You feel me? So 300,000 times how many arguments?
Let's just say we got a 100 arguments, right? Boom. 30 million. 30 million uh dollars that you would make off of one song if you times that by 100. If you times that by 100 is 6.2 billion streams. So if you see a song with bill six billion streams, that made 30 million. So now we got to pocket watch Drake. I don't even want to do it now. I got to I got to go to Spotify because that just pissed me off because I know this [ __ ] Drake just going bananas. I gotta see this.
Let me see. I see what you doing. What you doing now? I ain't know that math.
Let me see something.
So basic. So basically one dance made about that [ __ ] made about 20 M.
Scroll down again. This probably made another 15 something. That's not include tours, all that other God's plan made.
You know what I mean?
Yeah. See, when you look at like this, it make you think it's like, damn, 18 million. He just dropped it, bro.
This This is crazy. This This out of control.
Yeah. I I mean, [ __ ] if I was a label, I get a billion dollars, too. I know I'm going to get this back.
Let me know, man. I'll find a billion somewhere. Drake, I'll find that [ __ ] somewhere. I know I'mma get it back.
Come to Zudy.
Find that bill somewhere. I match whatever label you fa to sign with.
Whatever's on the table, I'mma match it.
I know I'mma get that back. But like, not everybody can get a billion streams, right? I don't have a song that's close to a billion. Well, Moon Walking has what? Let's see.
Moonwalking has 387 million, which is cool. You feel me?
You do the math. You feel me? 387 million. We already did this math.
Roughly 300,000 makes 62. So 62 million subtracted from No, 62 million divided into 38 million and then we multiply 300,000.
Y'all see how I'm validictorian? So 387 388 320 divided by 62 million 62 13 6 930 that's six. So 6 times 37,000 652.
Yeah. So according to my calculations about $2 million one song. Imagine you get 10 moon walkings.
20 moon walkings. You feel me?
Now that I'm looking at this, wait.
That's just Spotify. Wait a minute. This mother made more than that. Okay.
Okay.
Huh?
Hold on.
Wait a minute.
H.
Yeah. See?
Yeah.
I got to check the map of music streams.
I just got overly inspired.
You know what my problem is? I need to quit doing music because I'm passionate.
I need to do this for money.
I'm I'm I'm approaching this all wrong.
that passionate.
I need to get money out this [ __ ] I'm performing on my shows and I ain't even thinking about the money. My whole tour, I ain't thinking about no money. I ain't give. This just my head up and I just realized this is only Spotify too. This an Apple Music deal. So this [ __ ] made more than 20 million. Maybe 50, 60, 100.
What the h? Yeah, I'm doing this all wrong, brother. All that inspirational, all that passionate, all I've been doing this since I was a kid. that where the money maybe I think if I took that approach on music like I want the money you might be able to feel it in the songs now you know cuz I just be chilling I don't do it for the money I do it because I love doing it now I need the money this might have changed my whole music career I need to see that.
1.9 million just Spotify Apple Music. It got more streams.
I'll do it.
unlock this old ass phone. This phone got my in it. I need to see this.
Well, I think arguments was the song that made the most.
So, I So, on this site, right, which is I can show y'all this, bro. Who gives a Can I just show I could just show y'all, right? This old ass songs.
Who gives a right? Who cares? I already showed y'all arguments. No, no, no, no, no. This is like this is these songs is hella old. But um don't show everything. This is not it.
Like when I was really dropping dropping it was on a whole different thing.
Javanchi 131 7 96,000 off 168 million streams.
Okay, wait a minute. Now it's not making sense because if you divide a 100 if you if you divide 168 million streams if you divide 168 million streams right into moon walking right 168 million. What's the exact number?
16878658 708 658.
If you divide that into 30 387 388 320 divided by that that's 2.29 times 774.
No, no, no, no.
796.
No, no, no, no, no. Oh, can't count the sales. So, it is 774.
746035.
Oh, now I got the Now I say 1.7.
So, Moon Walking on Spotify made around like 1.7 1.8 type.
Yeah.
I ain't rapping for the passion no more.
[ __ ] that [ __ ] [ __ ] that. No, hold on.
Let's get some drinks going. I feel a whole lot better. This is crazy.
Yeah.
still on this.
See, now I get it, bro.
Drake don't rap because he passionate, [ __ ] Rap for the money. Duh.
I got I'm so stupid.
Dumb.
I'm stupid.
Trying to be passionate for what?
Why is crypto going down?
This streaming when he post to be rapping. Don't get it up now. This make money too.
This made me want to sue Neon even more.
I got to sue Neon. I hope that song go up. Go stream she want hang with the Indian soon as that make a million dollars. Lawsuit.
God damn boy.
I need that. Sorry, Neon. I need that.
Make money, boy.
This [ __ ] make money.

I keep forgetting my password to this.
If I can figure out my password.
I figured it out. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up.
And you know how it get a little it get a little complicated with this because actually my math is all wrong because Spotify pay less than Apple music.
Look at this. This gonna blow y'all mind.
Less streams. Less. Look, look, look.
Less streams, 69 million streams, right?
$479,000.
Spotify 81 million streams, 253.
Yeah.
