Being an independent artist has ups and downs (just not to a blatantly extreme extent, but at least the creative output of artists who take such a route won't be explicitly exploited or have their material controlled by major labels. Such dark truths of the music industry go back decades. Pretty upsetting for sure. I'm all for creative independence for everyone.

People like Taylor Swift just make it look so easy to be a hugely successful pop star. She makes all of the touring look easy. She makes keeping up a good appearance look easy. She makes writing, recording, and producing music look easy.

Yh. Some music industries can be toxic, especially in K-pop. They overwork them, exploit them, and treat them as money-making machines. This is why some musicians and singers committed suicide. The music industries are also manipulative.

i remember q-tip from a tribe called quest did an interview. he said an artist has to sell tons and tons of albums, songs, and air play just to earn a living. most if not all the money an artist receives are loans and or advances.

I hate to break it to you but objectification isn't just a woman thing. As male singers had to wear tight pants or appear shirtless. But the double standards that's it's only wrong when it happens to women

Hmmm. ARMY warned y'all about a good portion of this but we were told it's not true, we're lying, all while doing what we could to ensure that our favorites got the flowers they rightfully deserve.

Should do a list on music streaming sites
Spotify: how much CEO makes
How many layoffs they did this year
How much they're paying Joe Rogan in New contract.
Same for ticketmaster.

I have recently been asking myself why so many artists are unstable: Greed, abuse and exploitation by music execs or others seems to be the basic answers. This is a shame. THANK you for this video!

In the 1980s teen singing prodigy stuck with family. her mom managed her career therefore Debbie Gibson could continue to write, produce, & sing HER music. I believe Taylor Swift is the same

Good points, but it would have been more legit and persuasive to use real live examples of contracts, court battles/testimony and issues and not cartoon and clips from fiction movies.

I don't blame artists who would rather sign independently, then go with a huge record label. It's sad that there's so much exploitation in the music industry.

I think that most modern music just feels manufactured nowadays, there's no magic to music now, after the 2010's, i didn't like much of it if i'm honest
