“They’re already rich yall don’t need to pay them”

That statement is flawed simply due to the fact that proceeds from a concert or album or product or pretty much anything really also pays for workers who yall supposedly care about.

It’s one thing to not be able to afford and that’s understandable, but to be demanding that an artist shouldn’t ask for *any* type of compensation for their work (in which the money will also go to the workers who help make it happen) says more about you than it does about them.

Frankly, it shows that you don’t have any respect for artists and probably glorify the notion of the “starving artist” which is downright cruel. End.
