When will Indies REALLY have a chance?

Posted by Michael on November 29, 2008 under Misc, Recording Tips | Be the First to Comment

Lil Wayne AlbumIndies might actually have a real chance at sales and radio play when it no longer makes sense for the majors to spend MILLIONS promoting a single song to radio.

And judging from the list of best selling albums of 2008, that time might not be too far off.

When even the HITS aren’t selling a whole lot, the majors are going to have to rethink their strategies… hey, they might have to release GOOD music to get radio play instead of pay-for-play!

Lil Wayne may be #1 for the year, but at 2.7 million, it ain’t a lot to crow about. And with Madonna, 3 Doors Down and Katy Perry all WELL under a million… well lets say the general major label policy of the HITS helping cover the costs of the flops is coming to a close REAL soon.
