Basically they fund artists to record and then handle things like promotion.

If I can personally promote a subreddit to 8.5 million subscribers with no talent of my own, anyone who can make decent music can handle their own shit.

Yes, promoting a subreddit and promoting yourself as an artist are the same thing.

I didn't even have to sing.

Yo. I can be a record label. Come hang out in my apartment while I pay the bills and BAM! I get all the royalties!

Sounds like stealing with extra steps. Actually it sounds like just being rewarded for having money to begin with.
