“Artists right now you have the ability more than ever to establish yourselves independently as a result of technology! However, record labels are losing millions of dollars as a result of platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify etc, so they’re bringing back vinyl and cassettes to control distribution once again! So if you’re releasing music and you’re established or new, it behooves you not to release your music on cassette or vinyl! DJ’s will continue obtaining your music via digital download, streaming etc or else we place ourselves back at square 1, which is being reliant on a record label to distribute your music, which in turn causes the artist to have to pay the label a percentage for distribution, when we have the ability to make music with accompanying videos and put it online and go viral!” – Rahiem, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious 5
