Don't quite know what you mean by your question. She wasn't out to prove anything. Bessie was already a big name star before she even began recording. And the fees she received from recording were very nominal. She made her money from touring. She had nothing to prove to Columbia. Columbia just wanted to cash in on her popularity. Now, recording for Columbia helped increase her ticket sales for her touring shows most definitely. But she was not paid royalties for her recordings. Just a flat rate fee.
How did she do it? By being the best. Her voice was phenomenal and she was a very good show biz person. She traveled with a large show that had other acts besides her and comedy skits and dance numbers. She put on a good show and the world got around that Bessie was really good.
She only recorded for Columbia expect at the very end she recorded for Okeh.
