Garbage wrapped in a banana peel,
By
This review is from: Inside the Minds: The Music Business - CEOs & Presidents from Island Def Jam, Napster, LLC, EMI Music North Group & More Provide a Behind the Scenes ... into Recording, Promotions and Entertainment (Paperback)
Every time a music exec says "it's all about the music" in this book you should take a shot. That way you'll be numb enough to deflect any of the nonsense this book touts as "insider info." The only thing this book has compiled is a definitive list of the men who have been force-feeding us the most dishonest music humans are capable of producing for decades. The book is kind of like garbage wrapped in a banana peel, but only if the banana peel were made out of feces.
