Team Taylor Swift has issued a response in response to Spotify’s response. In other words, the bad break-up conversation continues! Team Taylor fired back in Time magazine, saying it’s simply not the case that big artists like Taylor would receive a $6 million paycheck, as Spotify CEO Daniel Ek claims . Scott Borchetta , the CEO of Taylor Swift’s record label, says that the label has received just under $500,000 last year for domestic streams of Taylor’s music.
