THE BRITISH Phonographic Industry association denies banning a young-singer songwriter from its My Music competition.
“We didn’t decide to ban the artist,” a spokesman for the BPI told the INQ. “Not only is it untrue that we made a decision to ban her from the campaign – she was never in the running in the first place.”
Rather, it would have been the girl’s record label that applied to be part of the initiative, said the spokeman, not the artist herself.
And, since Flowerburger Records has come out and said: “We think the public should be free from prosecution for downloading and sharing music,” a stance somewhat at odds with its own view, the BPI says it declined the application.
