About this Quote

This quote by Bonnie Raitt speaks to the existing state of the music industry, which has actually become progressively combined. This consolidation has actually made it hard to promote and commemorate designs of music such as the blues, which are a fundamental part of our national heritage. Raitt is recommending that the music industry ought to be doing more to promote and commemorate these designs of music, as they are a valuable part of our culture and should be celebrated and appreciated. She is also suggesting that the music industry should be doing more to support and promote independent artists, as they are typically the ones developing and performing these designs of music. By doing so, we can make sure that these styles of music are not forgotten and remain a part of our national identity.
