BACKGROUND
The phrase “industry plant” is often used to describe an artist who presents themselves as independent or self-made, but actually has the backing of a label. In practice, it has been used to describe basically every major artist working today – Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, gayle, Chance The Rapper, Clairo, Cardi B, Post Malone, Lizzo, and many more.
