@savannahd145711 ай бұрын
I didn't take it that way. My husband and I go to a lot of live music and are curious about the ways we can support an artist outside of buying merch and CD's. We're also curious about how they keep track of all the different ways they get paid, because it's alot. We have an artist friend who does solo gigs and is a member of 4 other groups. Plus being invited to perform with groups. He also writes for himself and others. It's very interesting.🙂

@edithtierce820911 ай бұрын
@@brianaroxby6448You’d only be here for politics if they were the same as yours lmao Taylor Swift is “open” about politics like most people in Hollywood and the music industry because it is purely about making more money for her and keeping a certain audience at this point. She knows her audience and that is why her politics flipped as she became huge… Playing the game is important to the ultra wealthy, even more so than the little people no matter how much you tell yourself they have so much money it doesn’t matter anymore. All of these people want more and more money no matter how much they have. Nobody gets that famous by actually being a good person in this day and age. You play the game….

@indiefairy0911 ай бұрын
So many artists for decades been saying “own your masters” in interviews but the public wouldn’t know what that means! I think prince. So it was more so warning insiders. But I’m glad Taylor brought it up during the age of social media bc now everyone could no longer take a shitty deal! If the general public knows you have a trash deal (look at Megan the Stallion), the stans will eventually turn on the record company for them to get a new deal. Her last few albums haven’t been amazing as her independent stuff but we all know she’s trying to break her contract so we give it a pass. We the consumers also have power!

To the question "what do you do all day" I hope Jordy knows, he doesn't need to be working 40+hrs a week or justify how he's spending his time, as long as he's making money, supporting you and being productive, that's all that matters, success is making the most money while working the least amount of hours

I don’t think anyone argues the validity of his job as I am a musician too. But long term as you get older it’s just harder and harder as music fads change. To make it a life time career is super super hard. So people usually need some back up plans.

It is really interesting how the music industry works. I didn't realize until the whole thing with Taylor Swift having what sounds like some or all of her catalog sold to another person (I may have the words wrong) that she then rerecorded her own songs so that she could have some rights to them. That sounds messed up, when they were her songs. She wrote and sang them. I love Jordy's music. Thank you for sharing with us! Happy Birthday! 💜
