Who's down to be a part of an Artist Union??

[Mac Jesus]

Tay, I don't know if you are familiar or not but there is actually a union for Canadian music artists: Home :: Canadian Federation of Musicians

There's also a Canadian musicians pension fund: Musicians' Pension Fund of Canada

So the haters who say it can't be done don't know anything.

 

[Cut-Throat]

THE UNION IM TALKING ABOUT IS THE BRIDGE BETWEEN MY SIDE AND THE OTHER SIDE IN THE MUSIC BIZ, THE STREETS AND THE CORPORATE WORLD AS I SEE IT

#SIMPLE SCIENCE

OK, I'm a up and coming artist, what benefit is it me to join said union?

I suggest you join the AFM instead. It's a little bit more established. Learn more here:

i aint even gonna post O @OnThaFarm s moms pics and info anymore.

I feel bad for her, its not her fault that her sons a delusional piece of shit chimo who's online lies and shit talking resulted in her and her family being exposed.

if her son who is in his late 30's and is from an upper middle class family wants to pretend to be something he's not, disappointing the whole family, then she has enough stress.

IM NOT TRYING TO TOUCH EVERYBODY BUT I WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH SOME POSITIVE MINDED PPL AND CREATE A UNION WHICH PROTECTS THE ARTISTS FROM THE "DONT ASK, DONT TELL" POLICIES THAT GO ON IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS. ALOT OF US SELL VERY WELL OVERSEAS AND OTHER PLACES BUT ARE NEVER NOTIFIED BY THE DISTRIBUTORS AND PPL WE DO BUSINESS WITH. IM JUST PLAYING MY PART AS A TRUTH VESSEL AND IM SERIOUS ABOUT THIS MOVEMENT.

Are you trying to make things equitable for both parties (artist and label/distributor/promoter), trying to get the corporate world to understand the mindset of an artist so it's less problematic or trying to get the artist to understand the business side of things? I'm not asking to critique what you're doing, start a flame war, etc. I'm asking because I'm trying to see if what your proposing aligns with what my team and I are doing.

 

[TAY CAPONE1]

IM FOCUSED ON PUTTING ARTISTS IN A BETTER POSITION AS FAR AS PROCEEDS GO AND BEING ABLE TO MAINTAIN OWNERSHIP OF THEIR OWN BODY OF WORK AND HAVING ACTUAL CATALOGS INSTEAD OF SCATTERED WORK. I ALSO WANT TO FOCUS ON ENFORCING FAIR RIGHTS FOR ARTISTS, NOT ONLY AGAINST LABELS BUT OTHER POWERS THAT BE THEY MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT OR BE FAMILIAR WITH.
ITS DEFINITELY MORE OF AN EACH ONE TEACH ONE MOVEMENT THAN A PROPOSAL OF CONGREGATION FOR MY OWN PERSONAL GAIN.
ITS SOMETHING IVE WANTED TO DO FOR 15 YEARS AND I THINK NOW IS ACTUALLY A TIME WHEN I CAN HAVE SUCCESS WITH SUCH A MOVEMENT. BOTTOM LINE IS, ALOT OF TALENTED ARTISTS WITHSTAND STRUGGLES AND BATTLE POVERTY AND SOMETIMES EVEN DIE BROKE AND WORTHLESS. NOBODY REALLY PROTECTS THEM FROM THAT, NOT EVEN THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS AND LABELS SOMETIMES.
I WOULD LIKE TO BE ONE OF THE PPL WHO SPARKS THE FLAME AND CHANGES THOSE KIND OF OUTCOMES IN THE FUTURE.

OK, so have you sat down and developed the plan for this? Is there a S.W.O.T or anything like that?
