just profit and should focus on a societal
purpose and 83% of millennials gave to charities in 2012”

“It's not the labels, the industry, the fans, the cities, the economy, the social media, the
marketing, the promoting, the 'right time,' the music, or whatever other excuse you can
come up with that determines whether you succeed or you fail. It is you, no one else,”
― Loren Weisman, A Guide to Success in the Music Business
