>it's even worse than almost any entertainment publisher deal
No it's not and you're a retard for thinking it is.

The whole reason Prince had to change his name to
>pic related
and be referred as
>the Artist formerly known as Prince
is EXACTLY because he wanted out of a Warner Bros. contract he signed, they wanted him to fulfill it and release the albums he agreed to release under their label, he said "nuh huh" and they pointed out to him
>Sorry mate, your given name is "Prince Rogers Nelson", the "Prince" artist name yuo use is out registered trademark, good luck releasing your albums under some other name not Prince

And he fucking did, and not only he did but he released under an unpronounceable name in a way the whole media had to refer to him as
>the Artist formerly known as "Prince"
which stuck some pins on Warner Bros jannies eyes

Melissa situation, Calli situation and the whole gaggle of vtubers is the standard for the entertainment industry musicians: good luck using your previous life name to promote your career if you broke up with your former boss in less than amicable terms
