“They need to have more initiatives to hire black people across the board.”
Achieving that “simple” goal will be a challenge for a music industry with little recent history of effective collective action. The people with the most power to influence change at the labels are likely the artists themselves, so their involvement in any effort is crucial. In the past, acts with leverage have not always been willing to use it to dismantle a system that’s offering them a check. “When a black artist who’s in high demand walks into a record label, and he sees the entire conference room is white, why doesn’t he say something then?” the A&R asks. “Say, ‘This is weird.
The first A&R also calls for more transparency around pay rates. Unless everyone is aware who makes what, it’s hard to “make the payment of black executives in line with the rest of their white peers,” he says.
Does this explain the lack of white people that play guitars in the charts?
If every thing is racist then nothing is.
🙄
Just stop. If you look at the Top 50, it is primarily black artists. If you listen to the radio, it's primarily black artists. Not that I have a problem but the industry is dominated by black people. Let's stop pretending it's not. Enough virtue signaling.
Science created Cookie cutter s*** true artists have a natural talent. Technology isn't it great.
“It would be beautiful to get our masters,” the major-label artist says. “That’s the reparations we need as black artists: The music that we make, we own. Or we get shares of the label when we sign… It shouldn’t be crazy for us to want to own our own masters.”
And this isn’t racial slur you scumbags?
