@compathent: Russ says no song blows up organically anymore without major-label funding behind it. Independent artists need to understand what they’re up against. It’s not just about making great music anymore. You’re competing with artists backed by millions in marketing, promotion, and infrastructure. #russ #recorddeals #musicbusiness #indieartist #artistgrowth
