Artists getting fucked by businessmen. Artists need managers. The Beatles, the Smiths, Led Zeppelin, the Clash all found it difficult to create without a manager or a broken manager. And they are often too inexperienced to protect their best interests. Hopefully every artist has wised up and managers understand that the important thing is to help art be created for the world rather than to accumulate more money for themselves. Thank you Simon Napier-Bell!
