Been banging on about this for years. Personal Spotify accounts are used in businesses everywhere. It’s unlicensed and it MASSIVELY warps listening figures and payouts. How much ‘hyperlistening’ is just coffee shops? #BrokenRecord @musicbizworld musicbusinessworldwide.com/p…

Super proud to be honored as one of #billboard's top #womeninmusic this last week, and what better way to celebrate than by hosting some of the most amazing women producers at a dinner with @splice.

LVRN is now valued at $100M+ after a $25M+ investment from MUSIC. The goal is to expand in Africa. Great pairing. LVRN has something special with Summer Walker and 6LACK. MUSIC's investors are sharp too.

The more training and development for executives and rising execs, the stronger these companies will be, and the better off the industry will be. Matt's examples were focused on music, but they are relevant to all investors and founders across industries.

The people factor matters more and more because access to data is democratized. Every company analyzes the data from Spotify, TikTok, and others. It has led to a “moneyball” approach in the industry. If everyone is playing the same game, then the data isn't enough.

3. Invest in people. This matters in music tech, but it’s especially true with music-centric companies like record labels and publishing companies.
