Episode 46 | The Decline In Albums, Importance of Live Shows, Drake and Travis Announce New Music, and Much More

STOP THROWING STUFF ON STAGE AT ARTISTS!

 

Sam and Adam are back, and they start by talking about the phone throwing epidemic at concerts. This leads to a discussion on the importance of touring for artists, and how indie artists can make money. They then dive into the slow decline of albums and the difference between a mixtape, EP, and album.

 

Next, they discuss their hesitant excitement and expectations for Travis and Drakes new albums. Do artists drop too frequently? Do they not drop enough?
