UMG boss Lucian Grainge shared an optimistic message in his 2020 year end letter to staff. UMG artists and songwriters “brought awareness to worthwhile causes that will help to repair a world so badly in need of repair,” wrote Grainge. [We’ve added the bolding.] Dear Colleagues: 2020! For many of us, those four simple digits say all that needs to be said about the incredibly difficult year now finally coming to a close. “2020” has come to represent pain and loss on a scale none of us ever could have imagined. We can never forget the suffering that this year inflicted on so many. Likewise, we must never forget that even in the face of historic challenges, so many of you achieved great things—personally and professionally.
