To quote Joey "Le Neve" DeFrancesco, "'Industry plant' implies the existence of music stars who have not had enormous sums of money pumped into their careers by major labels and tech companies to ensure their success."

Today, Emily and Andrew talk about the definition of an "industry plant" and how, while some bands who've been called "industry plants" are cringe and perhaps less-than-completely authentic, the truth of the matter is that almost every musician who finds success has significant financial backing to advance their careers, and how it's not fair but also probably should not be a rock'n'roll purity test.
