Musicians don’t want charity. They want to be paid what they’re due and ideally to have some say in how the product of their labor is used. Ek’s condescending promise to marginalized musicians is just the latest example of how much contempt the music industry has for the people who create music. If you care about free speech, you should spare a thought for the people who can’t stop singing for you and for Rogan, no matter how little they are paid.
