I've tried to avoid labels, but they always find you.
Poppy Z. Brite
In the early 1970s. 1971, '72. The rooms were closing down, record labels weren't signing acoustic acts any more. Although they had been pretty much been getting out of that for some time before that.
Dave Van Ronk
In those days the big U.S. labels didn't have any particular interest in the Latin market.
Ruben Blades
Independent artists and labels have always been the trend setters in music and the music business.
Shawn Fanning
It is hard, though, 'cos record labels love to boss you around. I won't let them do that anymore.
Evan Dando
It's a radical time for musicians, a really revolutionary time, and I believe revolutions like Napster are a lot more fun than cash, which by the way we don't have at major labels anyway, so we might as well get with it and get in the game.
Courtney Love
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
Judge men less by the labels they wear than by their persistent labour for sure if slow progress.
John Burns
Labels are for cans, not people.
Anthony Rapp
Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people.
Martina Navratilova
Labels don't mean anything to me. I'm trying to play as passionately as I'm able to. If they want to call that cool, that's fine. Just spell the name right, is the formula.
Lee Konitz
Labels only confuse people. The smarter people recognize artists who transcend categories. But I always try to entertain. It's in my nature; writers are born to entertain. If that means working ostensibly within a genre, fine.
John Shirley
Major labels blow all their money massively and blame it on the band.
Bruce Dickinson
Major labels didn't start showing up really until they smelled money, and that's all they're ever going to be attracted to is money-that's the business they're in- making money.
Ian MacKaye
More labels should be like that. Instead of putting these records out myself, I should have just signed with them, but they probably don't like my music (laughs).
Matthew Sweet
My feeling is that labels are for canned food... I am what I am - and I know what I am.
Michael Stipe
Nobody from my label called any of their labels to get this done. Most of it happened very naturally. Mary and I have been friends for a long time. Then Jay-Z offered.
Angie Martinez
One of the reasons I started Tzadik, which is my own label, is to keep things in print. I got tired of labels dropping things out of print when they don't sell.
John Zorn
Our names are labels, plainly printed on the bottled essence of our past behavior.
Logan P. Smith
People from major labels were afraid to go to Black Flag gigs throughout most of the band's existence. They treated our gigs as something threatening. I'm sure that it probably was. They probably had reasons to be scared.
