"600 Gees in the whole" means he invested in the album. He didn't work for it. He paid for it. PURCHASING is not WORKING Others worked for him. Im all for music but lets call it what it is. PLAY! Try flipping burgers or sweeping floors...thats work.
Music shouldn't be a contest. Music awards shows take away from the integrity of music.
This guy needs to seriously get over himself. A true artist doesn't need to speak for his art. It should speak for itself.
So what if you don't get a little gold trophy. If a fan sends you a letter stating how much a song meant to them, that should be enough. 600,000 dollars is a large fee to spend on a chance to win a trophy. I find it disheartening when music, for some, comes down to this.
Personally, I find most of stuff out there today to be 'souless-media-puppet music'.
