Spotify needs to embrace a user-centric payment model (where a portion of your subscription fee goes directly toward artists you listen to the most) rather than the current “pooled” system which massively favors large artists.

YouTube, for instance splits 55% of its YouTube Premium subscription revenue with creators, who get paid based on their share of watch time. Your YouTube Premium fee is distributed to the creators you view the most.

"mostly" = 0.6%
