In case you didn’t already know it, facts and figures put together by Forbes show that Daniel Ek, Spotify’s CEO and founder is currently worth $7.3 billion. That’s richer than their musical top three of Taylor Swift, Rihanna and Jay-Z combined. Richer, therefore, than any music artist in history.
It’s news that'll doubtless put a broad, beaming smile onto the face of any musician. Yes, whether you’re Elvis Presley, your choice of ex-Beatle or just that struggling guy or girl with a guitar looking for a lucky break, raise a [probably empty] glass to the fact that the CEO and founder of Spotify is the guy who’s really taking making money from music.
