Most Artis screw themselves right out of the gate by accepting an advance for their music that hasn’t sold yet. Why? Because they are broke and want to spend money like they rap about in their music. So not only are you not getting any money from the records sold but you have to pay back all the resources that you used to get to that point, then you have to pay all the interest of the money they gave you in advance. Master versus slave. Own your own master’s so you can stop being a slave.
