I saw this on another thread but if you really want to help musicians directly, I'd recommend www.paymusicians.app.
I am not sponsored by them, and I have no ties to the company, but I (artist name Thassodar) signed up for them last week and just received like $.50 this morning.
May sound insignificant but, in the last 6 years I've been streaming, it's the fastest turnaround for any payout I've signed up for. And to get that fifty cents from Spotify I'd probably need several hundred plays. Consider them to support artists, and recommend artists you know sign up. I hope it's a better way to get money directly to the creator.
