Teletubby 148,717 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 In early 2020, through Lil Aaron, Ethel Cain was introduced to the staff of Prescription Songs, the independent music publisher and record label owned by Dr. Luke. (Daughters of Cain, the independent label she created and releases her music through, operates as an imprint of Prescription Songs) Lil Aaron invited Cain to come to LA to meet the team at Prescription Songs (including Dr. Luke). She showed up at the company’s shiny building “looking like an absolute hillbilly” and played them three demos. Cain said she didn’t know Dr. Luke owned the company until after she signed. “I’m not Googling CEOs when I’m eating a candy bar,” she said. “I was unemployed and it was a pandemic. I didn’t have the option to turn down money.” Prescription promised her complete creative freedom even as it has tried to gently guide her career. Ethel says she have met Dr. Luke in person just once. “He sent some music — God, I hope he doesn’t blacklist me for saying this — but he showed me some demos and was trying to do some stuff in his studio,” Cain said. “I was like, yeah, boss man, sure!” “I went in the booth and I did some stuff,” she recalled. “He was like, simplify it, simplify it, stop doing so much embellishment! But I was doing the stuff that makes my music my music. He was like, make it catchier! And I was like, OK, this sucks. This is not going to work.” source source source "You b*tch!" ~ Rat Boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Mike 2,734 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Infinite respect for an artist who does not accept commitments to her art. For the rest, no one is pure, and I believe she didn't know about Dr. Luke before signing the contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
