The Grammys, Universal Removes Music From Tiktok, Nicki Minaj & Toxic Fandom

This week on Name 3 Songs…

⚡ ️Fangirl Nonsense: Quarters of Change dropped their new album! The 66th annual Grammy Awards took place this week. We’re talking about the biggest wins and snubs and the moments that had us giggling. 

⚡ As of February 1, 2024, Universal Music Group (home to Taylor Swift, Noah Kahan, and many more) has pulled their music from TikTok, citing that the app will not meet their asks for better pay for artists, protection against AI content, and safety for fans. We discuss the ramifications this has on all levels of the music industry and if UMG will bring their music back to TikTok. We also the ways major labels have forced up and coming artists to using the platforms for vitality and growth, just for their music to be removed.

⚡ Nicki Minaj claps back at Megan the Stallion with diss track “Big Foot '' after Megan’s song “Hiss” seemingly referenced Nicki’s husband. We look at Nicki’s history of celebrity feuds and the way Nicki and the Barbz have a symbiotic relationship of protecting each other, even if it’s at the cost of another person’s safety.
