Indie vs. Major Record Labels… Who’s the winner ?

At the end of the day to me Indie comes out on top. Let me break down the pros of Indie and the cons of The Industry.

What makes Indie great? Well the name speaks for itself, Indie means Independent. Artists have more freedom when it comes to their music. "Loud Records"They have writing creativity and more control. Especially when pursuing their dreams alone. When it comes to being part of The Industry, people make it seem like without them that you cannot succeed. That is so not true. I have seen many artists make it on their own. But if it’s about the money then that’s why people go to The Industry.

There are many Indie labels that help artists really achieve success. One Indie Label that has taken artists to another level is Loud Records. They have had some amazing artists on their roster like Three Six Mafia, Wu-Tang Clan and Big Pun. The Industry has the tendency to tie its artists down to 360 deals. That is a deal where the label signs you to a contract where they make money off of anything and everything you do. If you think you are just signing for music think again, because in a 360 deal if you do a movie the label gets a cut.

If you do a commercial, the label gets their share or if you breathe, you have to take a breath for them too. That is the down fall of being in the industry. Indie artist my not make the same money as main stream artists but I think they have more longevity. It’s not about the money or the fame for most Indie artists; it’s about the love of the music. I also feel like The Industry does something to its artists. There is not much individuality at all left. Most of the artists sound the same and the love for the music is lost.

I really think that Indie is the way to go. May be if there were more reputable Indie labels out there than music would be able to come back to where it used to be…
