I was forced & pressured to do multiple things that is their (multiple) jobs/what people get paid for. I had to focus on my tour at some point. They didn’t want me to do interviews for my first pop song in years or have anything set up beyond putting it on streaming. Literally. It’s not my job to get people to work for free despite it being a major label." what does this have to do with getting out of the contract Sky? hire a fucking lawyer and stop blaming Capitol. 1 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deleted Member 23,727 Posted January 6, 2023 it’s just annoying, because sky loves to use the “i’m basically independent” excuse as to why things don’t get done, but then likes to pull “i’m signed to a major label and they’re not doing their jobs” excuse as well. indie artists do exactly what she just described and a lot more. i’m not trying to criticize her passion, i’m not trying to aggressively come at her for something so personal, but part of me wonders how much she actually does care about the music and want it to come out. because if you love art so much, you make the sacrifices and put in the extra work to make what is able to happen, happen. and yes the label blocks things and there’s a lot out of her control, but even just putting out the music video isn’t something Capitol was trying to stop. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonniewinterbottom 3,163 Posted January 6, 2023 We, as a society of gay men, should've realized already that putting the whole blame in the label is stupid... like okay whatever you're telling me they'd waste money on years and years of sessions and not let her release music? She's probably as insufferable to them as they're to her. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if she's browsing this thread but the things people write here might actually be more helpful for her than the IG comments lmao. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimKaDAB 3,892 Posted January 6, 2023 Sky's no innocent but lol Capitol do hate her bc any normal label would see that and just stole her hard drive to release on their own, like RCA did to SZA, but they just keep Sky there, frozen in time 3 Quote Janelle Monáe • Sky Ferreira • Grace Jones • Spellling • FKA twigs • Kate Bush • Kylie Minogue • Charli XCX • Carly Rae Jepsen • LOOΠ∆ • Red Velvet • Janet Jackson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think she's lazy because if she wanted she could get out of this contract that's "silencing" her and just do whatever but no she's been complaining for almost what 7 years? 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
