John Moreland rules. One of the best live shows I’ve seen. High on Tulsa Heat is my favorite album of his.
That's actually the album I'm listening to now that prompted me to post about it. I listened to his first two solo albums and they're very good, but this one made me go whoah
for context, in 2021 Springsteen sold his entire catalog for $550m, Bruce Springsteen. so, yeah $350m for Bryan's stuff feels like an insane overpay, but, good on him for getting the bag.
Can anyone explain the maths here? Is it based on the fact that Zach still has potentially the majority of his royalties to come? Seems mad regardless. I never understood these valuations even for Bruce.
feels like suits making decisions based solely on spotify monthly streams which made me depressed that zach gets more than bruce lmao
Uhhh? Lol idk the context of the beef here but it sounds like Memphis the Blues will soon be replaced by a version without Moreland
https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/comments/1kfslsa/zach_bryan_scores_350_million_in_blockbuster/ Some speculation here. He owned more of his publishing already than others, bigger % + masters. And part of it looks to be the label afraid he'd move to UMG, which meant they wanted to overpay.
not weighing in on this since it’s none of my business but someone whining about people being “butthurt” in 2025 isn’t gonna get a ton of sympathy from me man this dude really tries to tank any goodwill he gets huh
Looking into it further does make it seem like it's just kinda everyone being immature but it really is sad that I saw this and immediately thought "it's Zach's fault" because of the precedence he's set
Just some random fan, the point I took away from the conversation I posted is that John annoying he's jealous of Zach and stands by what he said despite deleting it
