With artists like Adele, Taylor, Beyoncé & Drake moving great amounts of pure sales, all sorts of people enjoy them for the art. Streaming is highly overrated. And many of those artists that have great careers charted very nicely with great record sales, even with some of their later albums. Most current music is just trash. Vinyl also surged in terms of sales. So it's bs. The music/artist have to be of great quality & actually get promoted....
