Скачать или смотреть Drake VS UMG How Music Industry Steals From Artists

This video dives into the challenges artists face in the music industry, focusing on how major labels like UMG manipulate the industry to favor certain artists while limiting exposure for others. The comedian describes how these labels act as barriers between artists and listeners, with tactics like payola ensuring that only specific artists gain widespread attention. They highlight the irony of Drake's allegations against UMG, suggesting that the same "machine" that built him up now works against him.

The speaker humorously compares Drake's situation to Michael Jackson's struggles with Sony, noting parallels in how both artists, as black men dominating the industry, faced attempts to diminish their power during pivotal moments in their careers. Jackson accused Sony of sabotaging his album to reclaim his rights, while Drake alleges that UMG used his rivalry with Kendrick Lamar to devalue his stock during negotiations. Both stories reflect deeper racial and systemic issues in the music industry, as well as the challenges of maintaining autonomy and control as a top artist.
