Bob Dylan Brands Music Industry "Hypocritical Rubbish"

Bob Dylan Legendary rocker Bob Dylan has launched a scathing attack on the music industry, calling it "hypocritical rubbish."


The 'Like a Rolling Stone' hitmaker, 67, said he preferred the art and book industries, which he described as more "dignified."


He told Britain's The Times newspaper, "The music world's a made-up bunch of hypocritical rubbish. I know that the book people are a whole lot saner.


"And the art world? From the small steps I've taken in it, I'd say, yeah, the people are honest, upfront and deliver what they say.


"Basically, they are who they say they are. They don't pretend. And having been in the music world most of my life I can tell you it's not that way.


"Let's just say it's less dignified."
