This paper explores the ethical dimensions of the music industry and the role of aspiring music entrepreneurs in promoting a responsible and sustainable ecosystem. It highlights the challenges faced by hired artists and musicians in terms of financial compensation and professional conduct, drawing attention to anecdotal instances of malpractice. The paper presents solutions and strategies to counteract these malpractices, including comprehensive consultations, well-defined contracts, healthy management systems, and the power of saying "no" to unsuitable opportunities. Furthermore, it emphasizes the implications of these practices for aspiring music entrepreneurs in real-world professional practice and the responsibility they hold to elevate industry standards. By prioritizing fair compensation, transparency, and supportive environments, aspiring music entrepreneurs can contribute to the overall well-being of artists, musicians, and the industry as a whole. This paper encourages the integration of ethical considerations into higher education curricula and emphasizes the need for collaborative efforts to drive positive change and shape a responsible future for the music industry.
