By "luck" I'm assuming you mean "nepotism", yes?
It doesn't matter how lucky, talented, or hard working you are. We've known that the American music "industry" is an oligopoly for decades, now. Let's not nurture the notion that it's open for talented people to join off their merits.
Bit too much of a generalisation for me that one, but I get your underlying point.
