RE: Lady Gaga Plays SXSW: 'You Don't Need a F--king Record Label"
^^Thanks for posting this RMD, and Miguel. I love reading about all the music industry stuff. Fascinating and scary at the same time. I can't believe what an artist has to go thru. It's scary to be on top. it's scary to be on the bottom.
Even though Lady Gaga is at the top of her game, she is still just a vehicle for these companies to make more and more money. She mentions all the pressure for her to perform. It's a sad world...use em up and spit em out.
And if your a new artist, and don't sell mucho albums out of the gate, well, bye bye to you.....and by the way, you owe us (the label) some money too.
It's sad...
