Rapper Tory Lanez is taking credit for starting the streaming trend, claiming that his 2018 album “Memories Don’t Die” was the first to heavily promote streaming on social media. In an interview, Lanez stated that he was ahead of the curve in terms of using social media to promote his music and was one of the first artists to heavily utilize streaming platforms like Apple Music and Spotify.
Lanez believes that his efforts to promote his music through streaming helped pave the way for other artists to follow suit, and that his album’s success was largely due to his effective use of social media.
