Amid reports that as much as 10% of streaming royalties are stolen
With this in mind, the experts at AmericanCasinoGuide.com
To do so, they analysed the 10 most streamed songs on Spotify for each artist and divided the revenue for their songs by the total number of words in each song. Not only this, but the experts uncovered which artist has the highest volume of unique words in their songs, and therefore, the largest or most diverse vocabulary.
The results:

Methodology:
1. AmericanCasinoGuide.com
2. The amount of money earned per song/album is difficult to find, but it is estimated that artists typically make between 0.003-0.005$ per stream from Spotify. Therefore, for this study, the earnings were calculated by multiplying the number of streams on Spotify by 0.004$ per stream, to give a conservative estimate of earnings for each of the top 10 songs.
3. To calculate earnings per word, the lyrics for each song were collected from www.azlyrics.com and then cleaned to remove any artist cues and non-word characters. The number of words per song was counted, as well as the number of unique words per song to determine which artist has the widest vocabulary.
4. The earnings per word were calculated by dividing the Spotify revenue (calculated in step 2) by the number of words for each song. A final summary was compiled by taking averages across all top 10 songs per artist, to find which artist on average earned the most per word.
5. It is important to note that for Nicki Minaj, only the top 9 songs were calculated, as “Princess Diana” did not have the number of streams listed. Additionally, the number of words spoken per artist was not broken down for songs with multiple artists. Therefore, it was calculated for all the words in the song by the artist/collaboration, not just by the artist itself.

It’s Still Winter Here…..
GORHAM, N.H. (AP) – A New Hampshire mountain known for its extreme weather conditions has recorded its snowiest June in 91 years of recordkeeping.
Snowfall on Saturday atop Mount Washington brought the total amount to 8.4 inches for the month so far, but the Mount Washington Observatory says with a return to warmer weather on Sunday, nearly all of it had melted.
The observatory posted on Facebook that statistically speaking, the last snowfall of the season typically occurs in early to mid-June most years. A quasi-stationary low weather system sat over the region delivering snow early every day of the month. The observatory says there’s a chance for more snow in the days ahead.
