So False: Only Sectors Of The Biz Are In The Tank
The record industry as a whole is doing fine.
No it's not bringing in the profits that it once did but it is still "profitable" and at the end of the day that's all that matters for the powers that B!
Pop music- is through the roof!
Country music- will always be here.
The only music sector that is failing is "black music" aka as Rhythm and blues, Hip Hop and Rap.
1st of all, music of color was never suppose to make it in the first place. It was only allowed because "somebody" realized that it could bring in a lot of money. Back in the day black records had to dawn a white face. Proven by white artist with there pictures on the front of there records and and black artist with no picture or the picture of white kids or even other white artist on the front of there covers.
It's not "black artist" that want these sample clearances it's Corporations that own the rights to that music. We know that the CEO's of these Company's are not black writers, singers and producers of the music!
Old school artist never really got paid though they moved millions and millions of units. Very few black artist, producers or writers to this day own any of there music. You can only name a handful at best. The top dogs would have to be Smokey Robinson and Quincy Jones.
How many legendary black entertainers when they pass do you hear were broke as fuck? I can't name any that wasn't. That's some sad shit!
TO BE CONTINUED!
