Later in the chat, Björk pointed out that the publicly visible metrics on platforms like Spotify have fueled chart obsession. As a result, musicians sacrifice artistic integrity for instant success. “I agree streaming is kinda ruining music sadly it’s causing artists to make short songs just for fame,” chimed another user.

Bjork has been doing press interviews to promote today's livestream of her new Apple TV+ concert film "Cornucopia," but a comment she made about Spotify during an interview with the Swedish outlet Dagens Nyheter is grabbing headlines on Friday: "Spotify is probably the worst thing that has happened to musicians.

Björk is doing a lot with Apple right now — she recorded a DJ set for them on New Year’s Eve, sat down for a big interview with Zane Lowe this week, and her Cornucopia concert movie will premiere on Apple Music and Apple TV+ tonight before the full version screens in theaters.
