“The amount of streams on a song isn't indicative of the quality or effort put into it”: And Doja Cat says that those who disagree with this “could be having an episode and should seek love from the outside”

For better or worse, some music fans like to use streaming metrics as a way of measuring an artist’s level of success or failure. You don’t have to look hard to find these: Spotify has easily viewable play counts for every song, and an artist’s number of monthly listeners is shown right below their name.

Doja Cat, though, is of the view that streaming numbers aren’t the be all and end all. What’s more, she’s encouraging those who like to obsess over them to find something more fulfilling in their lives.
