Totally a dog eat dog world in business... matters an artist or not.

In this particular case (as this drummer), you are an artist conducting business, with a serving of emotions on the side essentially ... not conducting business solely as a function without attached emotions, but with expectations, just as the writer and engineer.

Was this unlikely outcome a known possibility beforehand? Yes, because nothing is certain.

We're you paid ?

Quit whining, go make some music. Slinging words is weak.

Raped ???

Are you trying to equate a business deal to being sexually abused against your will? Really ???

Your artistic license sux !!!

So, the outcome to this story is surprising why ???

Foo Fighters Member Reveals What Dave Grohl ‘Raped’ From Him: ‘I Was Doomed’

Former Foo Fighters drummer William Goldsmith has been in the news recently for heavily criticizing Dave Grohl, and claiming he played a role in Sunny Day Real Estate never releasing their fifth album, though he later clarified his statement with additional reasoning, while still throwing shade at Grohl. This new story has led to Foo Fighters fans resurfacing an interview that Goldsmith did on The Trap Set with Joe Wong in 2016 that was not circulated at all in the press at the time.

Alternative Nation transcribed his comments about working on The Colour and the Shape.

“There was a voice in my head saying, ‘Something’s not right here.’ Gregg Keplinger, he came out to help me with the Drums, getting the Drum Sounds for that session, and he’ll tell you, I was doomed from the start. Because when we were getting the drum sounds, and dude, Gregg Keplinger does not have a hard time getting drum sounds. Every record I’ve ever worked on with any other producer, and Gregg is working on the drum sounds, they’re always very excited and happy about his approach.

This guy Gil Norton, no matter what we did, where we put the microphones, no matter how much we tuned the drums, he was never happy with how the drums sounded. Kep was just like, ‘Dude, I don’t understand what the hell is going on here.’ I think from the get go the producer wanted Dave to play drums on the record, I think Dave wanted to play drums on the record, I think the people at the label wanted Dave to play drums on the record, I think everybody wanted Dave to play drums on the record.

That’s fine, but I wish they had decided that, or told me that, rather than drag me through the coals for three weeks 13 hours a day, working my ass off, and then accomplishing the thing, and then having all that effort completely just raped from you.”
