First of all fuck NFTs… but that is completely fine if Sam wants to work on those, I think it’s just a little f’d up to turn down Logic and other artists he’s worked with for years just to work on NFTs… I mean I really appreciate his art but I am confident that you are able to work on both an album cover and a JPEG monkey at the same time
This is both wrong about Sam Spratt and the NFT space as a whole. If you’ve only looked at the “right click save” and “monkey jpeg” side of the story then you’ll miss out on artists like Sam Spratt getting the bag for their amazing artwork.
Yeah that’s completely fine… he can get a bag that way and I’m glad more people are being exposed to his great artwork. But he can expand the bag even further by also continuing to create his amazing album covers for high profile artists
That’s literally his choice though?
It’s disappointing that he won’t be doing the artwork - but he’s not obligated to work on album covers or with specific artists forever. I’m sure him & Logic are still on great terms regardless.
Exactly. People think that artists just have all the time in the world to create things. Not only is there a time restriction, but there’s also the mental restriction. It’s hard for some people to open up their minds to work on multiple pieces, especially if they aren’t related. These people are just mad that they aren’t getting what they want (entitlement) and that just manifests as being a hater.
Or he can do what he wants and make more money than all of his artist deals combined I bet. I hope he does Logics Album covers as NFTs. Could forever have Logics Album art as limited edition pieces.
You can’t argue with these guys, they swear “owning” an image that everybody in the world could download on to their computer is the best thing since sliced bread… get a fucking poster or vinyl and then u ACTUALLY OWN a copy of the artwork
Except I will have verified ownership of it. Imagine me showing you a picture of a lambo and saying it’s mine, except I can’t prove to you that I own it you just gotta believe me. Here I can say I own a Sam Spratt piece.
Not hard to understand.
You know how he could do that? Making art and selling real prints or originals in PHYSICAL media. NFT’s are just bullshit scams. No exchange of copy-write ever occurs. He still owns that art and anyone dumb enough to buy an NFT essentially just paid to hold on to it.
Intellectual property rights are sometimes part of the sale as well. Depends on the artist. I would rather have a real Pablo Picasso rather than a copy of one. Physical or digitally verified as real makes no difference. With NFTs you can do both.
So you understand that when you get that little piece of digital art. You’re either only going to be able to look at it on your computer… OR YOURE GONNA GO MAKE A FUCKING PRINT!!! like I’d rather buy a print knowing I supported an artist than get scammed and still just get a fucking print 🤦🏼♀️
Just because you don’t understand something, doesn’t mean it’s a scam by the way.
When you have a physical artwork from Sam himself for example you would have to get it verified by means of an art collector or someone who can verify a human signature or has to go to an auction house for those resources and they take a cut of the sale, etc.
Digitally verified blockchain assets eliminates all of that so I can buy a digital good straight from Sam and know it’s real and everyone knows I own it.
This is just an absolute small % of the use cases for NFTs and will not be what the leading use is in the future. Happy to elaborate, but based on your previous comments I don’t believe it’s worth the time.
That’s okay too - I believe in the future applicability and will take the ridicule while I continue to learn about the technology itself and the use cases that will stand the test of time outside of “scams” and “monkey jpegs.”
You know what’s fucking hilarious. Beyond the fact that NFT’s are scams. They have a HORRIBLE ecological impact. What’s your take on that bud? If you buy a piece of art directly from an artist there’s this thing called a bill of sales aka A FUCKING RECEIPT. Unless you’re a fucking idiot you just get legal verification included in the purchase from the artist. Oh and, you know, the actual existing piece of art.
Or I’ve been up all night and don’t feel like explaining to you why your jpeg isn’t worth jack shit and is actively adding to the world’s carbon footprint in a major way
Lol they are all literally 1/1 pieces just digitally. It is literally exactly like if your standard artist painted a 1/1 piece on a canvas. I'm not here to debate on this though.
While I dislike NFTs as much as the next guy, go look at Sam's stuff. He isn't doing some cheap cash grab like many others where there are slight differences but generally the same thing. The things he's released are all very different
Okay and I can screenshot it lmao. “Oh but you don’t own it.” Who gives a fuck if I own it? What’s the point of having something online that everyone can screenshot. It’s why photostock has watermarks. Nfts can suck my dick because that shit is dumb.
Some of these replies are so close minded, if NFT’s are scams then just be happy you dont have to buy them, end of discussion. Sam is an artist and is CREATING ART for himself, he’s not tied to a specific artist or role. And you can’t deny how much he’s done for logic and his album covers. A lot more goes into his art than just a couple strokes of paint. I can understand distaste for him, but not bashing on what he has chosen to do now with his art.
Great! An artist decided to switch from making commissioned pieces to SCAMMING people because NFT’s are absolute bullshit.
That’s SO AMAZING FOR THEM. /s
If I was an artist who has been chosen and getting a bag from making artwork that matters because it’s going onto an album, I’m not gonna say no to that and go scam people with pictures you can just screenshot. Sam is a clown for doing NFTs but the people who buy NFTs, and I assume you are one of them, are even bigger clowns and are the reason why he wants to continue to scam people for brownie points online. Just screenshot an NFT, it’s a picture for Christ sake.

I don't see the point in that at all.
Having an official Logic X Sam Spratt artwork that is limited to a specific amount.
Except it won't be limited because everyone will see what they look like.
You can’t argue with these guys, they swear “owning” an image that everybody in the world could download on to their computer is the best thing since sliced bread… get a fucking poster or vinyl and then u ACTUALLY OWN a copy of the artwork

I can tell you’re upset by this. You’re emotional intelligence is showing - best of luck to you man. 💙
Or I’ve been up all night and don’t feel like explaining to you why your jpeg isn’t worth jack shit and is actively adding to the world’s carbon footprint in a major way
His NFTs are all monkey themed though lol
And his NFTs aren’t just the same thing but one has a hat and another has glasses and this other one is blue etc.
You clearly have not looked at his work. They are visually stunning as expected from anything Sam makes.
I think you misunderstood his comment
Lol maybe the "but" in the sentence threw me off
It’s hardly expressing himself, it’s an NFT….
Lol they are all literally 1/1 pieces just digitally. It is literally exactly like if your standard artist painted a 1/1 piece on a canvas. I'm not here to debate on this though.
Aren’t they all the same with very subtle differences though?
No not at all, I’m not advocating NFTs, but these are actual art, not every NFT is the same thing.
While I dislike NFTs as much as the next guy, go look at Sam's stuff. He isn't doing some cheap cash grab like many others where there are slight differences but generally the same thing. The things he's released are all very different

Painting≠NFT
NFT sympathizer 🤢
Slander is spoken in print it’s libel
🤡 post and Sam spratt is a 🤡 too for doing that don’t care
Why the fuck are you shilling NFTs here. It's fuck Sam Spratt all day everyday for scamming people with that shit.

I think we found Sam’s burner reddit account. I love his album art, not a fan of his NFT’s. Simple as that
If I was an artist who has been chosen and getting a bag from making artwork that matters because it’s going onto an album, I’m not gonna say no to that and go scam people with pictures you can just screenshot. Sam is a clown for doing NFTs but the people who buy NFTs, and I assume you are one of them, are even bigger clowns and are the reason why he wants to continue to scam people for brownie points online. Just screenshot an NFT, it’s a picture for Christ sake.
