Episode notes


Anthony Hamer-Hodges, Principal at the London College of Contemporary Music
speaks to Clayton M. Coke  in association with Podcast Radio Business to discuss Are Independent Artists Taking Over The Brits?

After Raye’s incredible success at the Brit Awards, which this year saw her receive a record-breaking seven nominations & win an amazing six awards, it’s important to take note of how being an independent artist has changed in recent years.


In fact, according to data from Spotify, independent artists have contributed $4.5 bn to the Spotify payout.


RAYE has been an independent artist since 2021 following seven years under a record deal with Polydor Records, and since becoming independent has had a No 1 single, performed at Glastonbury and the Royal Albert Hall.


2023 saw women dominate the UK charts, with women spending 31 weeks on top of the UK singles chart, and accounted for a record seven of the year’s 10 biggest singles.

We also discuss: Beyonce, Berry Gordy,Record Company Contracts, Record Company Influence, How independent Artists Survive ,The Future of The Industry & LCCM
