Oliver Anthony Turns Down $8M Offers Over Hit Song
What would you do for $8 million?

It's my intention to not engage in political discussions on this forum.
However. I feel the need to state - I am not a fan of Mr. Anthony's smash hit.
It's just too defeatist.
I think we need to believe our best days are ahead of us.
This song needs some John Paul Jones - "I have not yet begun to fight!" and some
Bluto - "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"
I say to Mr. Anthony and fans of Rich Men North of Richmond - "Lively up yourself and don't be no drag."
I'm not against calling out problems but I think we should acknowledge that there is a way forward.

Sounds like he recognizes the value of owning his masters. Thanks, Taylor Swift!

Oliver Anthony cancels show because ticket prices were too high: ‘Please don’t pay $90 for a ticket’

$90 a ticket is pretty reasonable, and $199 for a meet and greet is a steal.

So, wait he did end up selling out, or is this an agency deal?

TLC sold over 65 records worldwide and they ended up having to file bankruptcy due to bad record deals.
