Spotify has acquired WhoSampled.
This marks an exciting new chapter in our journey – one where WhoSampled will not only continue to grow and improve, but also bring its unique flavor of music discovery to the world’s largest music streaming platform, used and loved by hundreds of millions of fans.
Through our recent discussions with Spotify, it became clear that we share a strong belief in the power of musical context – and a vision for helping listeners go deeper into the songs they love. Spotify has shown a genuine commitment to our mission, and we couldn’t have found a better home for WhoSampled.
From Spotify:
Starting today, we’re expanding the Song Credits you see on Spotify to highlight all of the contributors who make each song possible, from producers and engineers to songwriters and featured artists. (Previously, our Song Credits only featured topline performance, songwriting, and production credits.) The rollout will start on mobile and continue to desktop over the coming months. These credits come directly from labels and artist distributors, so keeping them up to date through your label or distributor is the best way to make sure everyone is recognized.

Today I’m so excited to bring everyone the latest music video from Chicago punk band, The Brokedowns, called “Let’s Tip The Landlord.” On this great-sounding single, The Brokedowns channel their love for big hooks paired with slick musicianship. The band shared:
Forty-five years after the Dead Kennedys rudely sneered, ‘Let’s lynch the landlord,’ The Brokedowns offer a softer, less pointed, rejoinder—one of reverence over rebellion: Let us pray for the landlord / Let us venerate the landlord / But above all—Let’s tip the landlord. Picking up where Crypto Dave left off in “In Praise of the Pedestal,” we now find him drawn into the mysterious wolf cult first hinted at in the previous episode. Does Dave have what it takes to withstand the trials of passive income? Is he the chosen one as prophesized in the alpha scrolls? Or is he another beta grifter, doomed to an eternity of cuck Lycan worship?
If you’re enjoying the music video, please consider supporting The Brokedowns here.
