And snoop dog complains after receiving a measley $45k from one billion streams.
My Spotify wrapped had a special message from Weird Al (I know, I have great taste!) with the following:
Spotify iirc pays $0.003 per stream, so for 80m streams he's got $24,000.
If he's got less than that then he should be directing ire at his label or publisher.
Your math is correct.
Weird Al was exaggerating to make a joke and a point.
