I would suggest a marketing or business major. If you would like a music major then you should find a school with a Music Business degree, there are quite a few out there. Even a Music Engineering (recording) degree would be good.

If you want to work at a label in any capacity that would be a good place to start. As far as careers? Music manager, agent, A&R person at a label, or even CEO of your own small record label are options. The possibilities are endless.
