It's a bit dystopic. As much as the old music industry sucks, at least established artists had power.

- ratww 6y agoNice reference!
- farfacy 6y agoWhat Kpop fans are these? None of the Big 3 Kpop companies are worshiped and the men who founded them are hated. Smaller Kpop companies are not worshiped either. There's some BTS fans who like Big Hit but that's about it. Example of an established artist with power https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSo9NTb1llI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSo9NTb1llI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGW99ilZ7oQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGW99ilZ7oQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFELwBpskpU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFELwBpskpU
- PeterisP 6y ago"at least established artists had power." Really? Prince's right to his own (stage) name? Taylor Swift and the rights to her early albums? And even if we're just talking about royalties, it looks like half of established artists have had lawsuits about labels defrauding them in some way, and the other half seem to have similar issues settled out of court.
- ratww 6y agoYou seem to be reading too much into my comment. "Having power" doesn't mean that everything is perfect and abuses won't happen.
