Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage.

Music industry is a dope game with lawyers and attorneys
@Tsudkyk
Let’s take back the music industry. Support local artists, buy there merch and see them live.
@TennesseeZee
That’s what’s so powerful about social media and paying attention to your negotiating skills. If you have talent and people like you they can be sidestepped them, because they’ve always been the middleman and now that’s evaporating. It’s nice to see humanity start to take their power back. Once you sign they got that ass on whatever you signed. NEVER GIVE YOUR POWER AWAY.
@RRRSoulEvan
That’s why I stay independent. You make your own money, you do your own marketing, everything. As long as you put your hard work into it and smart with it. That’s why I’m mainly just listening to independent artist now. Fuck the mainstream cause they just make similar sounds and that’s more important too. You get to create your own sounds if you can make beats if not then find a friend to help you or just start learning to make beats your own. Period!

This is from Joe Rogan's interview with Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins. If you are a musician: aspiring, veteran, in-between, you HAVE TO watch that interview, it is amazing are scary all at once.

Most of our favorite artists are basically slaves to their label
@MrSilus2000
He should tell ppl how they control some of your lyrics and the artists are used as tools to push out programming.

@scottjohnson8576
New Orleans, the Melancholy tour, you told us all how tired you were and voiced your feelings about this. Broke my heart because in that moment I knew what you were going through. Well Billy, we didn’t forget you or your music! Love you bro!
@Jaysmooth4
The music industry basically pimps you out in a way
@BluWaves
That’s why you create your own buzz & let the record label come to you. Independence is key but note with social media you don’t need a record label to distribute your music. I do mine from my iPhone.
@patricialynn6280
MORE POWER TO THE GROWING INDEPENDENT ARTISTS OUT THERE KILLING IT, PASSING THESE PEOPLE ON THE CHARTS and they own all their own music and steer their own careers
@MycketTuff
The fact that a huge chunk of people can't see evil for what it is is a detriment to the rest of us
@BeyondTheInternet
Your Favorite Artists Are Being Pimped

Billy is such a genuine guy. I used to be security at The Metro, and even his personal security on Wednesdays where he would go look at up and coming bands.
@m0kxha8pey
Thank you Billy for exposing this.
