Dear B. 

The first time I met you, I could tell you were sizing me up.  My first impression was that you were kind of an asshole.  I knew both of your guitar players from college and the music world…

Gentleman, 

First, I would like to introduce myself.  My name is Steve D. Wilson, and I’ve been an artist on your platform since 2015.  I’ve been part of the massive change in the musical landscape since 1997…
