Thanks for asking
Aw, that's great.
Glad to hear you're doing well.

Having your own label is definitely the way to go in that business if you can do it.
Typically the musicians at the Grammy's or the MTV music awards are going to be pretty well known and make a good amount of money, if not from their music solely then from other avenues, though.
Beyonce, Kanye, or Taylor swift aren't exactly hurting for money, I would assume. Or so vh1 and E! tell me anyway.
But, the labels still screw artists over big time. I definitely agree there.
