ASKING FOR MONEY FOR YOUR ART IS NOT SELLING OUT.selling out is when you go against your own heart, ideals and authenticity to make money.
selling out is an action, a 180 from a stated position.
i don’t consider pop stars to be sell-outs.
but if neil young were to suddenly hire the matrix to write him a thumpin’ dance album and then appear on saturday night live snogging bob dylan, i’d have reservations about his integrity.
the lady gagas, britneys and madonnas of the world are UNABASHED about why they got in this game: fame, money, über-success, chart-topping hits.

Hi Lynn, of course it’s not. I’m checking my mail at the moment, and I’ll email you at the address you left here.
