The reason is, you guessed it, money. In the latest celebrity twitter battle, EDM/pop producer hybrid Calvin Harris and former One Direction star Zayn Malik are fighting over a Taylor Swift inspired tweet which pegged her as greedy when compared to Miley Cyrus.
Beau Harris swept in to the rescue, defending Swift’s stance as a big-picture attempt to help the little guys – so to speak. While Calvin definitely has a point, it’s curious to point out that he himself does a very minimal amount to help the other 99% of artists in the industry despite hauling in a remarkable $66 million a year.
Read below to get insight into a rather important discussion revolving around the greed prevalent in the music industry and the gaping maw of an abyss that separates the 1% from the rest of us.
