Consider this: Joe Rogan gets something like 200 million downloads per month. Taylor Swift gets someething around 105 million listens per month. He also helps draw a customer that Taylor Swift definitely doesn't (simply because millions of people do not consume music, or are interested in it at all.. strange, i know)

This link says that Taylor Swift easily makes the amount of money Joe Rogan does for a similar draw, and by and far significantly more when albums are
released..

It's really an apples to oranges comparison, but I don't think Joe Rogan is being overpaid for what he brings to Spotify.. He probably earns them similar moeny to what Taylor Swift does.

That's pretty impressive to me.
