The shitty “Justice for All” song by the “J6 Prison Choir,” which is just a bunch of Capitol rioters singing the Star-Spangled Banner mixed with a recording of fat former President Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, may have rocketed to the top of the charts on iTunes given its sales numbers, but music industry experts say the streaming numbers would seem to indicate far fewer fanboys are actually listening to it, according to a report by Forbes data guy Zach Everson.
Sales of the $1.29 track reached 22,500 on iTunes as of Monday, which is solid. However the audio and video streaming numbers between March 3rd and 13th pale in comparison at only 600,000 plays, not enough to get in the top lists of Apple Music and Spotify. “You often see a song that really takes off get millions and millions of streams in the first few days. That’s less impressive than the downloads,” said a music industry executive. Since the download sales are supposedly going to help out the families of the jailed scumbags, it would seem that buying the lame track would be more of a charitable contribution than anything else. A really shitty, measly charitable contribution, but a contribution nonetheless. A spokeswoman for Trump minion Kash Patel says sales of his special $99 vinyl edition of “Justice for All” are “significant” but did not provide actual numbers.
Of course if Trump really wanted to help out the Capitol rioters he would have pardoned them in the 14 days he was still able to do so after the insurrection he incited. He didn’t pardon them.
