These artists low-key sell their souls when signing with a label. There needs to be more provisions and ways to exit. 

No one put a gun on their head and forced them to sign. If they can be award winning songwriters, I’m sure they can read a contract before signing. It’s on them.

She signed when she was 14, technically she couldn't legally do it. But H.E.R. has been called out cos her parents literally paid her way into the industry, she gets called out a lot. Oscar winner, to people lots of things don't check out, cos literally she blew up fast and nobody knew where she came from to be an overnight sensation.

Or they need to start reading their contracts first.

I mean...it's easy to complain afterwards when it's literally in a piece of paper you signed.

I bet most artists are like "yes finally I am gonna be famous, lemme sign this little detail quick before they change their mind".

This. Starting to wonder if artists can't read or something lol. Like seriously. NEVER sign anything you don't understand 100%.
