Answer by max b
not much

if you sign with a label they are gonna take in about 20 percent of your profits

then you have to manufacture cd’s which will cost alot of money.

also when you sell you cd’s to best buy or wal-mart, they are going to take some of the profits

at the end of it all even with a decent album you cannot expect to make much

the best way to go is digital albums. sell you album on myspace or something. this does not require you to sign with a label company and you don’t have to pay to manufacture cd’s.
