For me Rosen's interview highlights this fact.
Every budding musician and entrepreneur needs a backer with financial muscle, connections and past experience to be a success.
As for small labels like your own... once you hit the big time with an artist you are bound to make deals with the big guys to increase sales/profit. I mean are you not in it to make as much money as possible?
As for your artists' if they are great then their talent will spread online (Youtube and Facebook). Once you have that artist I hope you would be doing everything for them to maximize profits and exposure.
- jamesbritt 15y agoI mean are you not in it to make as much money as possible? As possible while not being a scumbag or making pacts with the devil. I'm not alone, either. We want to do well, ideally make a living, hopefully live large. But that doesn't mean doing everything and anything, morals be damned.
- paul9290 15y agoWell i agree with you there but if you look at the most successful people from Edison to the current crop of luminaries you will see they all were/are ruthless! Funny that the music industry gets such a bad wrap, yet we never saw VH1 behind the music like programs about the TV and film industries.
