How much did dirty blonde make from the virtual concert minus borrowed expenses That production cost dollar bills, his $300, in play revenue hardly covered the cost of his costume let alone the lights, the equipment, the paid musicians on stage with him, the producers and all the stage hands engineering that you can't see No disrespect dirty blonde I hope you get full return on your investment and more But I'd really like to know how much you profited from that virtual showbrVirtual concerts will make big name brand artists money, but how many fortnite kids are gonna leave battle match to watch an unknown artist Again no disrespect I know you do it for the love of music, but it would nice to know for knowledge sake How much did you profitbrHow many kids chase a valuable dream that returns no value except an illusion of wealth to your peersbrHonesty depresses me that it's a facadebrDirty Blonde, I hope you become a brand, may you be magnetic to the money at the top Peace Comment from : @maybetomorrow-littlesthobo531 |

artists ? what is happening to the world ? this is pure ear, soul and eye pollution, and the problem is it's becoming normal and identified as music !! Consuming this means people have their soul immunity corrupted, which also means they suffocated to this cancer, dead sick society Comment from : @riadelmoudden4664 |

Some people are asked to sell their artistic rights when they first sign the late Mr Devious is a prime example but luckily in his case he turned ghetto ruffs offer down,I think that is too why they didn't Pay attention to his debut album so he later returned to Cape Town from Johannesburg and later worked on his own album independently Comment from : @mogamatyusufmartin9171 |

Record labels should not own master tapes or copyright for more than a very short time nor should they think 80 of revenue They don’t have the same costs as they did before the internet and streaming came along This needs to change so everyone gets their fair share and artists should own their own masters and copyright Comment from : @Empoweredwoman1234 |

In a recent interview, multi-platinum selling artist and entrepreneur, Akon, revealed some shocking secrets about the music industry that shed light on the inner workings of record deals and how artists make money Akon, who has sold over 35 million records worldwide and is worth an estimated $60 million, shared his insights into the industry and offered advice for aspiring musicians He explained that record labels often offer artists unfavorable deals that heavily favor the label, leaving the artist with little to no control over their music or finances Akon also discussed the importance of owning your own masters and intellectual property, as this allows artists to earn royalties and retain creative control He emphasized the need for artists to educate themselves about the industry and negotiate fair deals that prioritize their long-term success Overall, Akon's revelations offer a glimpse into the complex and often opaque world of the music industry, and highlight the importance of artists being aware of their rights and negotiating power Comment from : @QwartzBeat |
