Both can be true. The question wasn't if every artist can make it - it's not like small artists get rich off record labels.

The question was whether any artist can become a massive success without a record label. 10 years ago this didn't even make sense to ask. Today, I can almost believe it.

10 years ago Macklemore did exactly that. I'm not aware of anyone repeating the feat since
