Yes, the music business is just like the rest of America, a bastion of inequality.
And now we've got a whole generation of music makers who have no idea the way it used to be. When you delivered your album to the label and they had to release it unchanged.
How the hell am I going to compete with someone who makes $44.2 million in a year? Certainly not on cash. My only hope is to make them uneasy via writing. Our only hope is for the artists to lead us out of the wilderness.
But today's artists are a reflection of society, ignorant and greedy, steered by the moneyed class without realizing it.
Is a revolution imminent?
I certainly hope so.
