Answer: Yes. These artists will be signed by some company at some point whether I choose to make a ‘moral’ stand against it or not. The only question is will I be in a position to reap profits from it. The fact that these artists are known and successful means there is a public demand for it. By extension this means that regardless of what would be a largely symbolic stand against explicit lyrics, I would effectively only be passing the potential profits on to some other record producer who would sign these artists. I’d rather have my hand in the honey jar too.
