Summer Walker Is a Star. But She Signed a 'Brutal' Record Deal to Get There (Rolling Stone Article)

Posted: 04 Nov 2021 07:54 AM PDT

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/summer-walker-lvrn-contract-1252253/amp/

When Summer Walker's new album, Still Over It, comes out on Friday, commercial expectations will be high. The R&B singer erupted in 2019 with singles that channeled Nineties classics, especially the Top 20 hit "Playing Games" — which built on the unimpeachable foundation of Destiny's Child's "Say My Name" — and the platinum-certified "Come Thru," a slick homage to Usher's transcendently flirty "You Make Me Wanna." The accompanying album, Over It, launched with the biggest first week of any female R&B singer since Beyoncé put out Lemonade.

But this success seems to have occurred while Walker was locked into a lopsided record deal, according to 2017 versions of the singer's agreements with the label/ management company Love Renaissance (LVRN) and the label Interscope. One draft document obtained by Rolling Stone would demand that Walker give up a chunk of all her non-musical earnings, even in areas like acting. The recording deal she ultimately signed with LVRN offered the singer a low advance payment and a low royalty rate by current standards.

What's more, at least according to one draft document, the singer would have been incentivized to be managed by LVRN even though the company may have had a conflict of interest serving as both management and label. The deal gave Walker little flexibility — she's effectively an indentured servant for a series of albums — while LVRN faced little risk. "They're getting a lot without having to give her much," says Peter Scoolidge, a tech and entertainment lawyer and one of multiple attorneys who reviewed a draft of Walker's deal.

For many artists, lopsided deals are the norm. "If you compare [the music] industry to other industries with creative products, you'll notice that this is the industry where creators get paid the least," says Jordan Bromley, partner and entertainment group leader at the firm Manatt, Phelps & Phillips.

That's partially why artists complaining about their labels and deals on social media is such a frequent occurrence. Meek Mill slammed his contract just last week. "I haven't [been] paid from music, and I don't know how much money labels make off me," the rapper lamented in a since-deleted tweet.

But artists who are angry about their deals rarely share specifics about the source of their resentment — one notable exception being Kanye West tweeting his contract, page by page, in 2020. Low royalty rates? Giving up too much of your touring income? It's hard to know, unless you're at the label or on the artist's team.

The absence of specifics isn't necessarily surprising, since artists aren't known for their legal expertise. In addition, artists may be embarrassed to share personal details that show that they — or more likely, their representatives — failed to obtain a more favorable deal. Perception is the gasoline that makes the music industry run; if your deal sucks, you're a sucker.

But bad deals thrive in darkness.

LVRN cultivates an image as a safe haven compared to the more cutthroat corners of the music industry — even the name Love Renaissance suggests warm hugs and a new approach to what is often an exploitative business. "We always wanted to be progressive, next-level thinking," one of the label's founders told Billboard in 2019. Speaking to Rolling Stone last year, another company founder described LVRN as an entity with an interest in "protect[ing] our artists."

But LVRN's 2017 deal with Walker was hardly artist-friendly, according to more than half a dozen music managers and lawyers who reviewed a draft from when the contract was negotiated. Many managers raised objections about the deal terms, and several said they would not advise their own clients to agree to them. More than one described the draft deal as "brutal," citing terms such as the advance payment and the royalty. (Rolling Stone subsequently obtained the signed recording contract; the substance of the final deal between LVRN and Walker was no better than the proposal in these respects.)

Most people who spoke for this article did so on the condition of anonymity due to fears of retribution in a vindictive industry. Their fear may be justified — after Rolling Stone reached out to LVRN for comment on this story, co-founder Tunde Balogan went on Twitter to accuse Rolling Stone of "conspir[ing] with crooks" and vowed "we are gonna fight this one." (A rep for the label did not reply to a request for comment.)

Even as managers and attorneys expressed concern over a number of aspects of the deal, they were not surprised. They say arrangements like those in the draft they reviewed are typical of an industry that has historically under-compensated artists, and that, in 2017, deals of this sort were not unusual. It's unclear if LVRN offered similar contracts to other acts, but the "renaissance" outlined in Walker's deal is little different from what came before in the music business.

The draft outline of Walker's deal with LVRN and Interscope stipulated that she would have received just $110,000 as an advance. The proposed royalty rate for her debut and its follow-up was 16% — meaning she would take home just 16 cents out of every dollar she generates once she has recouped her advance.

Managers say these numbers are low by contemporary standards. They drop lower (starting at 15%) in the deal Walker ultimately signed, in which she also gave up her masters. (One progressive music company, Indify, does not even allow acts to sign royalty deals or give up ownership of their masters on their platform, believing that both practices are unfair to artists.)

Managers and lawyers alike were also troubled about the proposed "options" in the draft they reviewed, which would have committed Walker for however long it took LVRN to release up to four albums alongside a pair of pre-album "projects." (The signed deal lasted even longer.) The option system means that if an artist is performing well, she is stuck abiding by terms that were settled on before she earned this increased leverage. This is a common feature of record deals, and several managers said it's purely a boon for the label; the artist has virtually no protection, and if she doesn't do well, the company can just drop her.

Walker "is locked into a low royalty structure for what appears to be a somewhat indeterminate amount of time," Scoolidge says, referencing a pair of provisions that the singer ultimately agreed to. "She's also locked into giving [the label] a substantial percentage of any other money she makes from product endorsements, acting, etc. — sources that are not music sales. On the other hand, as is typical in these deals, the record label isn't really obligated to invest a ton of money into her career, brand image, or music." (A rep for Walker and Interscope did not respond to requests for comment.)

Many managers believe it is important for them to act in opposition to the record label: What's good for an artist's career and what's good for the label may not be the same thing, and a manager's job — in theory, if not in practice — is to advocate for the artist. That's part of why several people who reviewed the draft of Walker's deal were troubled with LVRN both managing the artist and serving as her label. They argue that a conflict of interest is inherent in the arrangement, even if it's not unusual in the music industry.

While LVRN describes itself as an independent company, it's what's known as a joint venture, or JV, with Interscope. These companies are typically co-owned and partially funded by Interscope, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the label's JV arrangements. What happens in a situation where Walker and LVRN or Interscope want different things? Can a company fight hard on an artist's behalf against itself, or against the very force that helps bankroll its existence?

"Using the label or its subsidiary might not make for the best representation when it comes to deals with another company controlled by the same parent entity," Scoolidge says.

Some of the financial proposals in the deal draft were contingent upon Walker being managed by LVRN. If the singer had a manager unaffiliated with the company, one draft indicated that she would give 5% of live earnings to Interscope as well as 15% of other non-musical income; if she was managed by LVRN, these numbers fell to 2.5% and 7.5% respectively.

The signed recording contract between Walker and LVRN dates from November 2017, and it looks like whoever had been advocating for the singer came up short in the negotiation process. Walker's advance was $85,000; her initial royalty was 15%; the contract included four options.

Labels typically justify loading deals in their favor by noting that they have to shoulder all the risk involved with "developing" the act. That's music industry-speak for transforming a nobody into the type of artist you hear while shopping for groceries. And it may be true in many situations that labels play an essential role in that transformation process.

But it's undeniable that artists suffer as a result: This year already, the rapper YG said one record deal he signed "was fucked up for 10 years straight," while the R&B singer SZA said she "hate[d]" her label (it was unclear which company she was referring to). Lil Uzi Vert publicly denounced one of his labels in 2018; Megan Thee Stallion has been fighting with one of her labels periodically since at least 2019.

Meek Mill has had 10 different solo singles certified platinum — he's a star with a decade-long career. But he's still pissed about his contract, and his broadside last week included the type of direct questions that most labels would rather not answer: "How much have you spent on me?" Mill wondered. "How much have you made off me?"

[DISCUSSION] DJ Shadow - Endtroducing (25 Years Later)

Posted: 03 Nov 2021 11:32 AM PDT

Note: this album was actually released on September 16th, 1996, but as nobody ever made an anniversary thread for this classic album I thought it was right to make one two months later.

From Wikipedia:

DJ Shadow began production on Endtroducing in 1994 in his California apartment, before moving to the Glue Factory, the San Francisco home studio of his colleague Dan the Automator.[13] Shadow strove to create an entirely sample-based album.[2] His setup was minimal, with only three main pieces of equipment: an Akai MPC60 sampler, a Technics SL-1200 turntable, and an Alesis ADAT tape recorder.[2] The MPC60 was used for almost all composition.[14] DJ Shadow bought it in 1992 at the suggestion of DJ Stretch Armstrong, who recommended it as a more advanced alternative to the "industry standard" sampler at the time, the E-mu SP-1200; according to DJ Shadow, the SP-1200 "had been around for like four years, the sound was well established, and it had some real audio limitations in terms of the bit rate and stuff".[14]

DJ Shadow sampled vinyl albums and singles accumulated from his trips to Rare Records, a record shop in his native Sacramento, where he spent several hours each day searching for music.[15] His routine is depicted in the 2001 documentary film Scratch.[16] The Endtroducing album cover is a photograph taken at Rare Records by B Plus, showing producer Chief Xcel and rapper Lyrics Born (the latter wearing a wig), who like DJ Shadow were members of the SoleSides collective.[15][17][18] ABB Records founder Beni B (wearing a baseball cap) is also seen in the full version of the photograph, which appears in the album's liner notes.[17]

Endtroducing samples music of various genres, including jazz, funk, and psychedelia, as well as films and interviews.[19] DJ Shadow programmed, chopped, and layered samples to create tracks.[20] He opted to sample more obscure selections, making it a rule to avoid sampling popular material.[2] Though he also used samples of prominent artists such as Björk and Metallica,[21] DJ Shadow said that "if I use something obvious, it's usually only to break my own rules."[2] Minor vocal contributions were provided by Lyrics Born and another SoleSides member, rapper Gift of Gab,[22] as well as DJ Shadow's then-girlfriend Lisa Haugen.[23] He finished recording Endtroducing in early 1996.

DJ Shadow describes his albums as "really varied", and said of Endtroducing: "I feel like 'Organ Donor' sounds nothing like 'The Number Song' which sounds nothing like 'Midnight' and on and on."[25] He said he was often depressed during the production of the album and that his "feelings of self-doubt and self-esteem come through in the music."[26][27]

Endtroducing is opened by "Best Foot Forward", a sound collage of record scratches and hip hop vocal samples.[24] "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt" is built around a looped piano line sampled from Jeremy Storch's "I Feel a New Shadow",[28] with various other musical elements entering throughout the track, including samples of an interview with drummer George Marsh,[28] a women's choir, bass fills, electronically altered drum kicks, and funk guitar.[19][29] "The Number Song" uses multiple drum breaks and vocal samples of count-offs.[30] "Changeling" deviates from the previous uptempo tracks, incorporating new-age sounds and gradually building toward a "sublimely spacey" coda.[24][31] It segues into the first of three "transmission" interludes placed throughout the album, each featuring a sample from the 1987 film Prince of Darkness.[32] "What Does Your Soul Look Like (Part 4)" layers wordless chants over a looped bass groove, creating what Paste's Mark Richardson describes as an "uneasy" techno soundscape.[33] Track six is an untitled interlude featuring a man reciting a monologue about a woman and her sisters over a funk backing.[34]

The two-part "Stem/Long Stem" begins the second half of Endtroducing. John Bush of AllMusic called the track a "suite of often melancholy music, a piece that consistently refuses to be pigeonholed into any musical style."[35] The first half, "Stem", sets strings against a recurring sequence of erratic drum beats, before giving way to the more ethereal "Long Stem",[24] followed by "Transmission 2". "Mutual Slump" features "dreamy" female spoken vocals and prominent samples of Björk's "Possibly Maybe".[23][36] The sparse "Organ Donor" juxtaposes an organ solo and a drum break.[24] "Why Hip Hop Sucks in '96" is a brief interlude featuring a repeating G-funk-esque beat, over which a voice shouts "It's the money".[24][37] DJ Shadow composed the track to express his dissatisfaction with the state of commercial hip hop music in the mid-1990s.[37]

"Midnight in a Perfect World" mixes a soulful vocal line with a slow drum beat.[24][38] It samples the bassline from Pekka Pohjola's "The Madness Subsides",[39] as well as elements of David Axelrod's piano composition "The Human Abstract".[40] "Napalm Brain/Scatter Brain" progresses slowly, starting with a bassline and a drum loop, then gradually increasing in tempo as additional instrumentation enters the mix.[24] The track eventually reaches its climax and deconstructs itself, leaving a single string sample playing by its conclusion.[29] Endtroducing ends "on an up note" with "What Does Your Soul Look Like (Part 1 – Blue Sky Revisit)", which is anchored by warm saxophone and keyboard hooks.[33] A third and final "transmission" closes the album with the spoken words "It is happening again", sampled from the television series Twin Peaks.[41]

Some discussion points:

  • Where were you when you first heard this album? Favorite songs?

  • How otherworldly does the production still sound 25 years since its release? Is Midnight In A Perfect World still one of the greatest sounds anyone has ever created?

  • DJ Shadow is sometimes considered a one album wonder due to every album released by him being eclipsed by him striking gold on his first release. Do you think this is fair and if not what other releases of his do you think live up to Endtroducing?

  • Is this still the gold standard for sampling as an art form to you?
