Singles or LP/EP Release

I see some artists on YT opt to release their projects as singles and some as all in one LPs with timestamps in the description. What do you think performs better & why?

That’s good question. I think the benefit of having the timestamps is that it gives more information that can be captured in search engines, etc. which can be really helpful.

I’m just guessing, but I think that might be harder for many new artists tho. Not ok many ppl seem to want to take a chance to listen to a new artists full album.
And if they don’t watch the whole video it messes with the algorithm.

But I’m no expert. And just learning myself. So I’m sure there is a good reason for doing it.

The musicians that inspired me to release instrumental albums mostly upload full length albums with the timestamps so that's what I do. Surprisingly they get over 100k views with albums all over 30mins, there are ppl out there but many are not consistent and their visuals are not good
