I think Tori Amos is able to do that now as she is in that legend status ( even though most don't know or have heard her music and they should EVEN if they don't like it)
She still has her label she needs to apease, and whilst she is with interscope, she will need to do what is set out in her contract (whatever that is) however she isn't seemingly doing any of that tbh.
what is a Non-fan? I don't get what you mean?
