Hi there Lucy, good to meet you. Welcome to Songstuff!
While I agree with your sentiments about the music business, getting the success you want will require you to at least learn how to work within the music industry, and know how the music industry works. To avoid all that corruption is impossible. Not that I mean you will be corrupted, but you will most definitely be affected by it. Ie you will lose out on a lot of opportunities precisely because you don't play that game. Music and talent are sadly not enough. You will have to bring your creativity to how you do business in the music industry. A challenge for sure, but an exciting one I hope!
