The relationship between popular music and consumer brands has
never been so cosy. Product placement abounds in music videos,
popular music provides the soundtrack to countless commercials,
social media platforms offer musicians tools for perpetual
promotion, and corporate-sponsored competitions lure aspiring
musicians to vie for exposure. Activities that once attracted
charges of 'selling out' are now considered savvy, or even
ordinary, strategies for artists to be heard and make a living.
What forces have encouraged musicians to become willing partners of
consumer brands? At what cost? And how do changes in popular music
culture reflect broader trends of commercialization? Selling Out
traces the evolution of 'selling out' debates in popular music
culture and considers what might be lost when the boundary between
culture and commerce is dismissed as a relic.
