Never thought I'd have reason to say this, but I'm siding with Fred Durst and Limp Bizkit on this one!

"Three decades after it rose to prominence, the band and its founder, Fred Durst, alleges that Universal Music Group (UMG) owes more than $200m after fraudulently concealing royalties from the band."

@ajsadauskas @music No, no, no, not even close.

But I started in the 80s and had a close friend who did well as agent and then manager, so I learned a thing or two from a distance.

He passed away in 2019, so my limited access to inside dope is even more so.

I also read, when I was younger, biographies and memoirs from artists and suits, so that gave me a glimpse.
