Ryan Adams was pulling the same shtick years ago. He posted some loooooong social media posts whining about how he just wanted to release music and that was our first thought as well: Bandcamp + [insert preferred digital distributor here]

If he was gagged we wouldn't know what he was.

Agreed. It has never been easier to self-release. But then he wouldn't be able to pop up everywhere in the media being given the opportunity to voice that he's been gagged. What a hideous old twat he's become. Sad.

Tony Wilson had his number from day one. Absolutely vile human being. He loves one thing….himself.

Morrissey is a twat.

25yo Smiths-era Morrissey would hate this version of Morrissey. The only reason they won’t release his album (that they paid for!) is because it’s the same music by numbers dirge he’s been churning out for the last 25 years. Now he’s moaning that music’s most contented and revered musician won’t give him a big payday a year after his open letter to Johnny telling him to stop mentioning Morrissey. Morrissey is a clown.

Guy who won't talk to the press says "I'm gagged" and then...er...talks to the press.

Man complains in UK National newspaper that he’s been gagged. Hmmm

Cancelled over 3 pages in The Telegraph- wish someone would cancel me like that

I note that the Telegraph keep their articles behind a paywall. It’s almost like commercial entities have the right to act in their own interests, even if it reduces Morrissey’s ability to get his message out.
