Neil Young Blasts Google in Epic Rant: They Don’t Pay Musicians a ‘F*cking Cent’

Big Hollywood reports:
“Today, in the age of FaceBook, GOOGLE, and Amazon, it’s hard to tell how a new and growing musical artist could make it in the way we did,” Young wrote. “The Tech Giants have figured out a way to use all the great music of everyone from all time, without reporting an artist’s number of plays or paying a fucking cent to the musicians. Aren’t they great companies!!! It makes you wonder where the next generation of artists will come from. How will they survive?”
Neil Young understands that Amazon and Google view him as a "loss leader" for other stuff...
