J*Davey Issues Manifesto To The Music Industry....



Jack Davey is fired up to spark an internet movement against the suits in the recording industry. In a post this week on her blog, “The Electronic Mayhem of Jack Davey,” the lead songtress of J*Davey makes a public call for all music makers, pushers, and consumers to change (and therefore revive) this dying game. “Record labels are nothing but banks that give artists hi price loans in exchange for artistic control. Put your money where your cocks are.”.....to read the full story click here!

Amen, I'm glad I checked these guys out...you read that last Saul Williams interview where he was talking about meeting with the A&R Department at Sony? Worth digging for the actual quote...

http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9848536-1.html

"And to me that's the role of technology. Technology is here to free us from the grip of history. That's why I'm thankful to the Internet. That's why I'm thankful to this form of (music) release. Because in many ways it set me free.

I've been in meetings with reps at labels and they walk me to their urban department. Literally I'm like, 'But I'm not making something limited to urban music,' and they're like, 'Yeah, but you're black.'

That's why I'm grateful to technology because it freed me from the constraints of race. "
