every real label, provied money for album, studio time, beats, cover design and then pressing and printing, aswell as advertising, video/s, live shows, travel and accomodation all that.

when i perform, all the promoters pay for my travel, accomodation, my drinks for the night some of even by my dinner, and thats before they pay my fee.

and asking on a forum like this, aint nobody gonna take you seriously, peace
