    U really have no concept of creative vision like if the label owns your masters they can put that song in places or causes u don't align with, brands u don't f*** with, its basically ur song is now the labels tool for cashing in instead of yours

    s*** is a predatory business and its better for artists who give a f*** about how their music is represented to have creative control

    That’s why i said it’s more abt principle for the big name artists.

    Ur acting like getting most of ur actual music sale money is a lot. It isn’t if ur name isn’t drake or adele. For The Weeknd it prolly is tho

    Owning your masters isn't about making money right now, it's about being able to make more royalty money for your whole life even after you are done touring

    Also it means you decide what to do with your music in america if you dont own your masters the label can do whatever they want with it like use it to promote movies/people/events that wont align with your values and s*** like that

    principle and revenue

    so principle doesn't matter? Because you said that "it's not a big deal"

    You ever make music or created art?

    No need to bring Drake into this and the OVO deals when we know nothing about them, I’d bet they are pretty similar to this tho.

    The Weeknd was in such a rare position for a newer artist where he actually had leverage when negotiating with Republic since he had already blown up. Most up and comers don't have that ofc.

    No. That's not effectively what happened and we've been spreading this lie for going on 10 years now when Weeknd himself said otherwise


    Also, only on KTT will asking for a song, then paying the artist + giving them a huge amount of shine = taking advantage.
