I'm about to put together a project for this upcoming year and I have been working really hard on it. I have always wanted to be in the scene as far as music is concerned but I never knew how to make that move until now. I'm not into the whole getting signed that isn't my thing. I don't want to be a music industry hoe, if you know what I mean. I can't be a slave to others when they are relying on my work. I would rather work for myself. The internet has opened the door for you to make your dreams happen one way or another and that is the route I'm about to take.

I'm working for myself right now as we speak! And it's the best feeling in the world to not have to work for someone else or answer to anyone when it comes to your work.

I wish I could work for myself. I hate getting up to go to work for someone else these days. But you have to do what you have to do. So no complaining.

Here is a nice video about "Major Labels vs. Independent Labels" Description: Owen Husney, a manager, explains the pros and cons of signing with major and indie labels. Indie labels offer less money to make your record and don't have enough funding for major airplay. However, indies are able to give a lot more attention than major labels. They are able to help the artist build a fan base. A major label is meant for those artists who believe they will be successful. While they offer more money to make your record and offer larger promotional dollars, major labels are bean counters. If the majors feel that you aren't making enough money, they will drop you quickly. Husney points out that there are still some good major labels in the music industry. Also in this segment, he discusses his ideal situation - major labels with indie offshoots. Video Link: www.artistshousemusic.org/videos/major+labels+vs+independent+labels |

i think creating your own lable is the best way to go and if you have a good team and a good mind frame it can be done.
