THE 360
<span class="html-content">
<p>You are probably wondering why we are talking about degrees.</p>
<p>Your mind is probably searching its crevices trying to decipher this. Don't worry, let me break the dry spell.</p>
<p>Imagine you are a very passionate musician, you love your work, this gets noticed and you get signed by a label; you are groomed and wooed by them with the promise of a star-studded life and a new era in your already dwindling life.</p>
<p>You take this promise with the trust and understanding that your life is truly about to be lit. </p>
<p>Months down the line, you réalisé you are not making money as promised
Then the blurred lines become visible: that contract you signed takes a huge chunk of your money, from sales, to tours, merch, music, masters and everything generated from you being a STAR!! You don't even own your image or name anymore and your initial cash spree was a loan you have to pay plus interest. </p>
<p>Now you're stuck, as you have to be here for another 10 years or more, unless you fight for what you want.</p>
<p>Key Tip: Ensure you have a TRUSTED lawyer with you when signing any deal. </p><p>Be sure of what you want before you launch into the music business; a career or the star studded life: one ends in misery and keeps you a slave to the business and the other keeps you satisfied and in control of your life.</p>
