Entertainment lawyer Dina LaPolt says the music industry must remove the racist term “master recording”. She says terms have long been used to distinguish between a source recording (the “master”) and the copies made (the “slaves”).

LaPolt says “This business has been dominated by white men since its inception, so when coupled with the well-known exploitation of Black artists, the already insensitive use of the phrase “master recording” carries an even more sinister sting. Artists such as Williams, have voiced their discomfort with reading these words in their contracts and have called for changes to be made”.

She says “It is my hope that this sheds light on the issue — enough so that more can and will embrace this impactful change. Removal of such language is a simple yet meaningful step that can make our industry a more welcoming and inclusive space and allow us to reinforce the principle that music is for everyone — no matter one’s race, gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or background”

All the worlds a bot and a fake profile.

You ain’t got a business until you’re thriving on Twitter, Instagram and FB. Promote your unique content on our platforms and create grassroots hype by reaching the world. But what world? The natural world with biological life? Not that world. It’s the fifth dimension that is inhabited by chatbots, AI and fake profiles.

It looks like your post is garnering more reaction from previous posts. You may want to boost the post and reach an audience organically. We have an organic farm and our hardworking people from China, Indian, Nepal, Sri Lankan, Egypt, Indonesia, and the Philippines will work hard delivering you the freshest product for your sponsored post including heart emojis, praying hands, and fire. Don’t forget to brush up on your language studies like Aramaic, because, engagement is high among non speaking English people.

Big tech successfully dismantled the institutions and infrastructures that created mass awareness, but how many creatives broke from the big tech monopoly? My fingers count zero.

Big tech & social media created a simulated world of bots. A second life with little real life detected. They created millions of fake bots that will keep you engaged, amused and vested. TikTok, like the casino throws you bone once on a while. Sit at the slot machine long enough, pushing out content, the system will reward you with a payout of views and comments.

Social platforms are the new Backpage classifieds that was eventually shut down by the feds.

Twitter claims to have 330 million (the population of America) active monthly users. Believable? No.

200 million of the 300 million are bots. And at least 50% of the 100 million real accounts are mostly inactive. The remaining user accounts rarely engage. Twitter is the size of California but it makes you think it’s the globe, but perception is everything in Silicone Valley. Fortunately , perception is not reality.

Pink has called out Rolling Stone mag for snubbing her from a list feature ranking the 25 greatest Grammys performances of all time.

The singer reacted in rage after discovering that she had been left out of the list.

Pink took to the comments to express her discontent, at first writing on Instagram: ‘Bahahahaha you guys have been irrelevant since 1990.’This is the magazine that used to feature people like John Lennon and Muddy Waters. ‘Hunter S Thompson wrote political pieces- they put Tina Turner on their cover. Then they sold out and all credibility went to shit when “style over substance” and “revenue over authenticity” went into play.’ ‘F**k rolling stone. And I’ve felt that way for decades- as so many of my favorite artists and my peers have.

Winner must take all!

After apologizing for creating controversy, Joe Rogan slightly changed his tune. He threatened to sever his multimillion dollar Spotify contract if he is forced to walk on eggshells.

“If I become something different because it grew bigger, I will quit. If it gets to a point that I can’t do it anymore, where I have to do it in some sort of weird way where I walk on eggshells and mind my p’s and q’s, f*** that!” said Rogan of the show with millions of listeners for which he is paid $100 million.
