The entirety of the music industry is fake. All of the streams are botted. All of the views are botted. Labels and companies get behind people they can sell as pseudo influencers, podcasters and reality TV stars. Musicians exist entirely to sell product. Their influence, in turn, is then botted. Just like the numbers of whatever product they’re selling are inflated.Fake numbers on top of fake numbers on top of bullshit and PR. The absolute state.
