Re: [Tracy Chapman Fan Club] "The Rape of the World"   Message List

Hi everyone, I think this is my first post here. I've been a Tracy fan for
15 years.

This post made me want to ask something I've been wondering about Tracy and
other artists I think have a lot of integrity and that I admire very much.

Since Tracy sings songs such as "Rape of the World" and speaks out against
corporate greed, what do you guys think of her being signed to a big corporate
music label? Is it hypocritical? I have mixed feelings about it.

Hi, I would like to respond to Nephi's question about Tracy being signed up with a coporate record label and whether it is hypocritical or not. What Nephi must...

I'm glad someone finally responded to my post. First of all, I'd like to say that I never said Tracy was hypocritical. I merely posed the question as...
