In this latest post on MusicThinkTank, contributor Tracey Arbon dives into what impact playlist culture is having on artist's wellbeing, and how much scoring a placement on popular playlist really helps an artist."Let’s face it, to stand up and out as an artist, your song has to be better than good. Otherwise you’re just another artist/musician in a list of songs played in amongst other artists whom the average listener may like the sound of, but for the life of them, couldn’t even tell you the name of the artist. (Unless, as mentioned before, you do stand out from the crowd encouraging the listener to actually ‘make an effort’ to find out who the artist is)"
