'The balance of power is too off, the gap between major label profit and artist profit too wide; and I will work to re-think the design of the entire way we move in this space.' - KanyeWest in an exclusive new interview with Billboard.

showed up; Steve Rifkind showed up. I’ve put together a group of advisors to get me the information I need to succeed on behalf of all artists.We are in discussions but I don’t want them to just fix my situation. I want this to be about fixing everyone’s situation.

You only need to look back to the early days of the record companies and see how predatory they were. Old execs admit it. The contracts are almost the same now. The shape, the terminology... And yet, in that time we moved to a completely digital age. Has the attitude of the labels and the structure in which our music moves on our side changed to that degree? No, it has not. You’re locked in; once you’re locked in you can ask no questions.

The music industry is very different from a decade ago, or five decades ago. Are your proposals about the new opportunities for artists, or could they have applied through history? I understand you're working with Joel Katz on this now. How were you connected with him, and what does working with one of the most powerful entertainment lawyers mean for your cases against UMG and Sony/ATV?-- Here’s the thing: Whether it’s Joel Katz, Merck, Steve or others, I hire and work with people who are not afraid. Not afraid to remove everything they have been told is the status quo and move.
