funny stuff, i like the 2 short video that pops up after the jeff one is done. its like the first or second to choose from.
first and foremost you should always ask yourself: how do you measure success.

That's EXACTLY what happens. It's also dependent on the deal. Most people are so enticed by the prospect of a record deal that they'll sign anything. Most of the times the label has enough leverage over the artist to make them sign the bad deal.

Man, that story about accepting the Grammy and crying afterwards cuz he only had $500 in his bank account was sad...
