What was the difference in your career, as far as everything goes, between having no record contract, and being in a record contract?

That's what I would think. But, what about fame. Did it make a difference?

What if your grammy is dead?

[Semi]Finally. Would you recommend NEVER to sign to a record label? I don't have the interest to my self, but what are the benefits? Also, how long did it take you to become well known (how much work did you put into it?) And you didn't really answer my question. How much did your "fame" jump from not being owned by a record company to being owned? I have a feeling you're doing this post half-heartedly. But, I am a musician, and it's nice to know what to look out for, and avoid.
