In today's music world, art is more accessible than ever before but only if you're ready to scroll, skip, or pay top dollar. This week, Lucero and Ixchel explore the evolving music industry landscape, where economic pressures and technological advancements are reshaping how artists tour and release albums. From surprise drops to streaming-driven releases, they discuss how streaming impacts artists' revenue, pushing them to tour more as a primary income source, and what this means for affordability and accessibility. As the industry shifts, there's a move towards more intimate, stripped-down performances, reflecting our changing relationship with technology and a craving for authentic experiences.
