Amy Newman emphasized that she gets hurt that these young musicians feel a sense of entitlement when using the songs of veteran artists in the music industry. She further added that most of these young musicians do not have respect for veteran musicians.
“That is what actually hurts me. It hurts me in the sense that I’m an old musician so if you want to take something from your mom, you ask, mummy, can I use your song? That is why I say these young guys do not respect us. They should seek permission”. She said this in an interview with TV XYZ.
