I'll dabble here and there in different forms of the art, but the label has me locked down like a slave so, of course, I'll be doing albums during this time.
Erykah Badu

I'm developing artists for my new record label, my son's band, Intangible, being one of them.
Gary Wright

I'm fighting the label of "Black" actress simply because it's very limiting in people's eyes, especially people who are making movies.
Whoopi Goldberg

I'm really happy with Elektra, I don't have anything bad to say about them at all. I always knew a major label was the right place for me to be. I never really had an opportunity to go to an independent label anyway.
Jon Crosby

I've always had a love for poetry and when I got signed to a record label I thought, 'How odd that I'm doing a record before a book of poetry,'
Jewel

I've got them in the can and I am looking for a label.
Michael Owen Bruce

I've toured the U.S. every single year and I've put a record out every single year whether it was on a major label or not; that doesn't make any difference to me.
Buzz Osborne

If the label presents them with a contract that the band don't want to sign, all the label has to do is wait. There are a hundred other bands willing to sign the exact same contract, so the label is in a position of strength.
Steve Albini

If there was ever any truth to the trickle-down theory, the only evidence of it I've ever seen was in that period of 1960 to 1965. All of sudden they were handing out major label recording contracts like they were coming in Cracker Jack boxes.
Dave Van Ronk

If you bleed Black Label and you're going to be a man, you gotta get up there and do what you gotta do every day, relentless and as tired as you can be.
Zakk Wylde

If you're not on a major label today, you're not gonna get played. They've got the market sewed up.
Mickey Gilley

In Washington, there's always an effort to label people.
Gale Norton

Individuals have little opportunity to get elected to Parliament under the label of the government party... unless they are in good standing with the Prime Minister and pledged to be cooperative.
Stockwell Day

It became a question of do I want to be on a label where it could take three years to put out a record instead of putting out three records over the same period of time on my own.
Matthew Sweet

It breaks my heart to see these young, really talented bands getting chewed up into the system. I remember a time if you'd signed to a major label it was such a sell out! But now... unless you've signed to a big label, you're a failure now.
Mike Peters

It may be necessary temporarily to accept a lesser evil, but one must never label a necessary evil as good.
Margaret Mead

It was important to me to find a label that wouldn't back out after a first single. Everyone's so used to hearing me with Hootie, they're going to be skeptical.
Darius Rucker

It's an album that is a little bit different and probably isn't easy to get out. It's not likely that a major label would have picked it up and said that they had a smash hit record.
Billy Sherwood

It's fun seeing my label on someone's behind - I like that.
Calvin Klein

It's just someone has labelled us as having a different label to do what you do. I find that labels are the worst thing in the world for artistic expression.
Ornette Coleman
