Music Business Artists Problems

Thedy B started a forum on Studio Exposed entitled Radio, A&R's and Major Labels are Not Your Problem.

This is an excerpt form part of the discussion by Thedy B "I just recently went to an ASCAP event where Lyfe Jennings was on the panel and he said that he made more money and sold more records when he HAD to grind then when he got signed!"

Often, what you have is displaced vision by emerging recording artist. By displaced I mean that the goal is often to "get signed." Once the emerging recording artist has "gotten signed" they have achieved their goal. If there is no new goal in place i.e. to win a Grammy(s), sell 10,000,000 downloads, go on a worldwide sellout tour, etc. then their hunger stops and so does the continuation of success. Now that's Industry Pimping.

To ensure you minimize having music business problems you'll want to read the Music Industry Connection Book Series and watch JaWar's Music Business Videos.
