What are the possibilities of cheating on Spotify to permanently boost your career?
No matter what it costs!

 

There is a big cheat going on, good artists make good songs, get paid big

 

people do it all the time. there is major payola going on behind the scenes. There is also algorithm hacking,

 

haha true. Honestly tho, you can make substantial money from spotify. Sure they are robbing you, but it can add up if you hold rights to the master

 

"permanently boost your career" ?

you can just advertise your songs (Paid advertising) and get million of views each time.......

but i don't know the result to that

 

No big money being made here! Everybody wants music & films for free today.

 

In my opinion, you don't need to be very active in business. Do good work, business will come to you. It is the same in all economies. Anyone who does a good job will find a customer and his job will be guaranteed. People are worried about their jobs if they don't produce good works or don't care much about customers' tastes. The economy always works based on the customer. You have to see how to create a balance between the work you make and the customers so that both the quality of your work is high and the customers come to you. For example, if you make 10 good songs, your path will definitely become smooth.

 

it seems logical, but I am totally against that idea, well at least for me. A wise man once told me, good music are meant to be discovered, not shove down your throats. From experience 99% of the music I like are those that I found, discovered accidentally and watched live even the big artists out there. I tend to not like music when the artist themselves (or label) advertised even they are big enough everybody knows them. Promotion is good but gotta think some good way of doing it, as example, perform live at places nobody knows you. Falling in love with things you watch live tend to stay forever with you. May not apply to everyone or everywhere or if the music is not good. One of my fav band ever was once be on the cover of a big magazine with the headline "The Biggest Band You've Never Heard Of" after 20 years of their foundation and countless of festival headlining. Coolest thing ever. So, the lesson here is make good music and play live! people will discover you one day. Not helping at all, I know :p

 

buy whole Spotify and set rules yourself

 

Put you song an a advert people can't skip.

If it's long enough it counts as a stream.

Even if the advert is on youtube, the frequent streams has Spotify boost the song's listing in their suggested list of songs. This is because it assumes the youtube advert streams where peoples' choice and there for people will continue to listen if it plays it after their chosen song.
