On this episode of Overpriced JPEGs, Carly welcomes music NFT expert, advisor, angel investor, curator, co-founder of Friends with Benefits, and did we mention music NFT expert(?!) — Cooper Turley.

Cooper, also known as Coopahtroopa, has shaped music NFTs from their infancy and is building toward onboarding the next wave of Music NFT artists, curators, builders, and investors. However, are music streaming platforms ready to support the Justin Biebers, Taylor Swifts, and Post Malones of the world?

Cooper shares his thoughts on everything from why music NFTs haven’t taken off as jpegs have yet, to the core problems with the legacy music industry, to the future of music NFTs, and everything in between. We hope you enjoy!
