    i agree with Niosiss..a normal life is boring..
    i’m a musician, and i can honestly say
    that i would rather do what i love doing
    the rest of my life and be poor as dirt,
    rather than have some job with a nice salary..
    i would be so miserable with a normal job!

    Bare in mind thats how much an artist gets just for singing the tracks, and they did not contribute to writing their own stuff or producing it.However if an artist writes most of their own stuff i.e Neyo, Ashanti, Alicia Keys and Beyonce etc.They will be earning much more = Artist royalities + songwritigng royalties and Production.
