SONGS FOR DRELLA.

Took me a long time to find this one on vinyl, but Lou Reed and John Cale's song cycle about their mentor Andy Warhol was well worth the wait. Paired with the albums that bracket it, NEW YORK and MAGIC AND LOSS, this record makes one of the finest trilogy of albums I can think of.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.
