Good Charlotte: 'The industry makes artists feel worthless'

Good Charlotte have revealed that they're proud of the management label they created, named MDDN, because it's important for artists to have a team they can genuinely rely on. 

Joel and Benji Madden told Kerrang! magazine that they've seen lots of acts get beaten down and made to feel "like they're worthless", but they provide quite the opposite with their own services:

"You realise that they (the managers and executives) were lucky to be working with us - it wasn't us lucky to be working with them. But (it should) not (be) in the way that a lot of the industry seems (to operate), like a pimp trying to keep a prostitute. They beat (artists) down into feeling like they're worthless."

The band, meanwhile, picked up the Classic Album prize at the Alternative Press Music Awards this week for their 2002 offering 'The Young and The Hopeless'.
