Thank goodness for YouTube disabling dislikes on videos. The streaming platform did many of music artists a favor. Now, their record labels can stop purchasing the minimal amount of dislikes to make their analytics seem authentic. Plus, the haters can stop disliking videos without viewing videos first. Sheesh!
Why so bothered? Blame it on the oversaturation of music dropping all at once…for music listeners, it can get overwhelming trying to keep up. So, here’s our cheatsheet on what we’ve been keeping our eye on, tuning into, and in some cases, actually enjoying on the giant video streaming service.
Oh, and yes, we know Adele dropped this past weekend, but she deserves an article all her own, so we’re going to pretend like one of the queens of music didn’t just shake the table and focus on these others, okay?
