The Black Keys Get Real About the Music Business | Joe Rogan

[@Lucia-Sosa]

pthompson108 gorgeous sentence

[@ThingsILikke]

A lot of these artists play victim though. If they want their music to get heard they should be good employees to the people that fund their careers and make money for the record labels.

[@Lucia-Sosa]

Cheek Cheek artists aren’t employees... lol artists have very different mindsets than people who have different skills. These people “hiring” the “employees” wouldn’t have an industry without them. Artists want a fair partnership, not a boss or a dictator. Can’t have music without the creators.

[@ThingsILikke]

@@Lucia-Sosa then the artists can see how far they get with no financial support and promotion from the labels. they are employeed by the label to make the music and the label does the branding and puts them on with the producers. They have taken many mediocre artists to success with good producers and booking agents and promotion. Take a closer look.

[@Lucia-Sosa]

Cheek Cheek trust me I see it all. This system is why all the popular artists are shit who just sell sex and products :/ the sheep of world keep buying it. Just perpetuating the circle of bullshit, evolving nothing within our species. but whatever, things are changing and artists are regaining their power. people aren’t really buying what the media pushes as much as before, people are seein through it more and more. We have so many different avenues to consume what we are looking for. So artists don’t be discouraged ;]

"We live in an age of music for people who don't like music. The record industry discovered some time ago that there aren't that many people who actually like music. For a lot of people, music's annoying, or at the very least they don't need it. They discovered if they could sell music to a lot of those people, they could sell a lot more records." T-Bone Burnett.

[@chickenmonger123]

Really? Huh. I love music. It’s always been something I identified with. Maybe It’s just that I grew up in a church where we made and sang music every time we gathered. As an expression of praise so to speak. Maybe it because my parents always played music in the car. Maybe it’s that I wasn’t allowed a TV in my room, but was always allowed a radio or cd/tape player. But I love music. It makes me feel. I identify with the language of music.

[@barreldreamz7852]

Sounds nice but that's a crock of shit

[@angelgjr1999]

Music streaming is crap. Why the fuck does Spotify recommend me the same song I skipped 50 times before?!

[@Kwelar]

Nah Idk about that, Will I am said it best when he said that everything is centered around music. Without music everything is boring. Just try and think about how music is used for all the tv/ radios ads, night clubs/ bars, retail stores, entrance music for fighters, sports arenas, festivals, etc. Car sound systems would sound horrible without music because sound systems are built for music. Music is an experience and people NEED experience.

[@Floral_Green]

Kwelar Subjectivity makes this sort of thing a tricky grey area. If I were to hazard a guess, I’d say that, broadly speaking, there are plenty of people that don’t really care about music beyond ambience, more still that quite like it and consider it an immutable part of certain experiences, and then the minority that have a borderline-obsessive appreciation for it that typically only comes from being a musician. That said, I fell into the first category until about the age of 14, at which time I quickly found myself in the third, and now am at the point of not being able to go a day without creating or working on at least one song.

[@jamaicanwarrenbuffett760]

Yeah but that's an exception to the rule, or even is it? What is the criteria for "best burger"? What you might have as criteria, someone else might not. The point of capitalism is that people vote with their dollars. People considered the best musicians of all time are all popular (even if after the fact). So I would say that popularity is one factor, but not the only, as there are plenty of popular things that "suck". But then again, what if they suck to you and your friends but a bunch of other people love them? I've always hated Coca Cola and it's somehow the most popular soda...by far. People would also say it's the best. As for me, you'd have to pay me to drink it!

@@LeCapitalsRMNB finally a man of taste

[@stevelogan1699]

It’s great to see musicians who’ve got real respect among their fans stepping aside from the nonsense, racketeering and pretence of the so-called high-level music business. Much of what’s presented on music award shows looks like strategic playacting in costume. However, in order to make this kind of stand, you need a standing. And that (arguably) has become harder to get. The number of major labels has declined and getting signed even to a smaller label can be difficult unless you fit some marketable niche. This is why the internet came to seem like an alternative field for self-promotion by independent artists. Unfortunately, it then got colonised by professionals who know how to exploit it and the social media numbers game becomes as false as some of the high-level strategies played by big labels. An alternative to both, which of course the public hears little about, is to interact online with a smaller group of people and content yourself with limited touring and self-financed recording. This has no glamour; but maybe helps keeps some of the integrity which otherwise tends to get lost.

My first album purchase was the Charlie's Angels soundtrack. I bought it because it had 'I Like Big Butts' by Sir Mix-Alot. I would go to Barnes and Noble like once a week and listen to it for like 2 months straight before I had the money to buy it. I was 8.

[@daverobertson5633]

Mine was 'suck on my chocolate salty balls' by Chef with Eric Cartman doing a version of 'come sail away' as the B side.

[@TheMinishKid]

In all fairness, the music industry has always been shit. Back in the 90's, adult contemporary and mainstream music was quickly chewed up and spat out too. Yes, we consumed music differently...but it is what it is, and what it's always been. The difference now with social media is this process is sped up much faster. Think of how quick a meme dies. Everything is cheapened beyond recognition and music is no different.

I guess it had to come to this point. People’s attention and patience was bound to get shorter and shorter, we just needed the technology to keep up with our appetites.

I think it is actually worse now. I heard an interview with Sheryl Crow (I'm not a fan-just heard it come up) and she's going to stop making albums altogether and only release singles on iTunes because "nobody listens to albums anymore". People don't take the time to buy an album and listen to it all the way through and appreciate it as a self-contained work of art.

[@TheMinishKid]

@@ThievesInTheTreasureRoom it’s funny, I was just talking to my son about this the other day. No one listens to albums cover-to-cover anymore. I mean, I do...but they’re mostly albums from 90’s and before. I haven’t listened to many modern albums cover to cover. Singles singles singles singles

[@PiCheZvara]

Black Keys are established household names. They will sell tickets no matter if they are on the radio or not. They've earned the right to call their shots a bit. Like in any work or business if you think about it. If you're a starting musician though, you will take this deal and you will like it, because you need your name out there. You can't rely just on quality carrying you, life doesn't work that way.

[@uptheirons726]

I agree to an extent. But just because you're an up and coming artist doesn't mean you should get fucked on a deal.

[@leetledrummerboy]

​@@uptheirons726 it's not really getting fucked if you're an up and coming artist though. If you don't have the leverage to get a better deal, the deal you've got is the best deal for you

[@jessrainprod9391]

@@leetledrummerboy Just because its the best there is doesn't mean its right. The industry is literally made for the artist to not make too much money because if they did then they wouldn't need labels. So a label will offer you a shit deal that gets your name out there then they offer you another deal (not as shit but still shitty enough that you can't retire) then the cycle continues. All the cars and houses you see big artists living with are all loaned to them via labels and once the artist decides enough is enough (if their contract allows them) they are left with not much. That's why so many artists try to invest in other industries like fashion etc. for example, Travis Scott earned more money from playstation than music in 2020 despite having top chart hits. So really yes, as an artist, you really are getting fucked.

[@leetledrummerboy]

@@jessrainprod9391 if a deal is not worth it and you take it, you're the idiot

[@jessrainprod9391]

@@leetledrummerboy But there is no other choice? like you just said, its either take the deal or nothing. That's what the issue is and as a result, there is no other industry as exploitative as the music industry. It's a form of monetary slavery in that the salve owner (label) offers its slaves (musicians) food and water (record deal). if you take it then you get to live somewhat comfortably but you are a slave and do your masters bidding. If you reject it then you have nothing and you are left to starve. does that sound ok to you?

I agree with Rogan's first comment here. It is frustrating how the music industry is so driven by awards that you lose track of the art itself. Music is not sport with a defined winner.

I only buy CDs. Don't let record collections die!

[@zwood1838]

If you really love it buy a physical copy, cds don't take up that much space either

Just read Dans interview in Vintage Guitar magazine! Love these guys. So genuine. Great interview.

[@john_mccarthy_hi]

yet another reason i love the joe 'dmt' rogan experience!

[@07maitai]

I fucking LOVE the Black Keys. Beyond the groove they kill it. My son is 5yo and BK is his fav band. He sings it and plays the drums to it.

[@AndyGinny1]

"have you guys ever played guitar on DMT"?

[@Norquaymusic]

Joe Rogan: Why is everything a competition in the music industry? Also Joe Rogan: I have the #1 podcast btw.

[@ricksell2877]

Fair, but that doesn’t mean he’s competing with other podcasts. I think Joe just does his thing and people like it. Speaking of Podcasts if you are a true music lover check out the “THAT RECORD GOT ME HIGH” podcast. It’s awesome. A new record every week is discussed by a special guest who brings their fav record to the show. - PureSalem Guitars

[@aussie_philosopher8079]

Awesome you guys are being honest and exposing the music industries crap. COME TO AUSTRALIA

[@weirdbardward]

DAMN I love the truth-telling in this clip. This type of non-conformist integrity, to me, signals that these guys are REAL rock stars.

[@rubeuscubeus]

Damn, Patrick has it figured out. I might come across the black keys once every couple years and really get hooked, but there are a lot of records out there to listen to.

"No one *man* should have all that power" - Kanye Today with the internet, the *kids* have all the power, which is why the music industry is such a disaster rn

[@tiagosousa491]

But without the internet, underground artists like panchiko, death’s dynamic shroud, dos monos, and countless others wouldn’t have a fan base. I would happily choose for the the top 40 be mediocre if it meant that I and other internet users could discover more great underground music.

[@itsalovething8190]

Inaccurate

[@nyodene]

@@tiagosousa491 yes they would. Underground bands had audiences long before the internet. they would just be on tour instead

[@Tom-jn7id]

I got to listen to this podcast on the way to their first concert for this album in Denver.
