Daxx Kartel has weighed in on the debate over whether streaming platforms or live performances offer better financial returns for musicians, arguing that performance fees remain a more reliable source of income for artists.Speaking in an interview with Galaxy TV, Daxx acknowledged that streaming platforms such as Spotify contribute to an artist’s income but said the revenue should not be viewed in isolation because artists have to continuously invest in promoting their music and maintaining their visibility online.Streams are good because they are part of income but what’s different is that you have to invest back because you have to promote on those platforms because they aren’t free. You have to keep rebranding all the time and work with different agencies.He added that achieving major visibility on streaming platforms requires significant investment, noting that even opportunities such as getting featured on Spotify billboards can come with considerable promotional costs.Daxx Kartel reveals his top 3 Ugandan songs of all timeFor Spotify to give you a billboard, it takes a lot because you have to put in money and those are things they never tell people.According to Daxx, money earned from performances plays a more direct role in sustaining an artist’s career because it can be used to cover the costs of running and developing their music business. He, however, believes that while performances can help artists build their careers, endorsements are where the biggest financial rewards are found.That money (performance) develops an artist but the money that would make an artist rich comes from endorsements. @galaxytv_ug Daxx Kartel Reveals Why Performance Money Beats Streaming Revenue! #JikonkoneFlexx ♬ original sound – Galaxy TV 𝐉𝐢𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐞!
