Although Drake's story may not be the barometer that every musicians should follow, it still offers a broader implication for today's overall talent pool. Can a recording artist sustain themselves by selling full length albums alone? The answer in my opinion is a resounding no.

I’ve been hearing the song Very Busy People on several channels while listening to XM radio. I just looked up the band, The Limousines, and on Wikipedia and it says ” The band’s single “Very Busy People” was released by Universal Republic records but the band is not currently signed to a label”. Huh? Distribution through a label without being represented by that label? Is this new? How will the label make money off of this agreement?

For some music is a hobby and that is okay. However, if you plan on feeding your children by touring the Chitlin’ circuit, that’s another thing entirely. When I realized that writing songs for Columbia Records and recording demos with The Fugees wasn’t going to sustain me forever, I had to get adjust my expectations. These gigs were few and far in between and often times didn’t pay half as much as you would expect them to.

Two days ago Google introduced a new product called Buzz. If you aren't already aware, it allows you to update your stauts, share pictures, vidoes, links and more right inside your Gmail inbox. I have to admit I was very skeptical at first becuase my inbox is like a safety deposit box of contacts and conversations...my little blankey. But what the hell, I figured I'd give it a shot anyway.
