  • I never whine about my shit, but my label was also the first and only to have an artist featured in Next (Vibe) and Microphone Check (The Source) without a major. Again - never had to complain something other than the music had something to do wit…

  • I don't hate Cosmo or Georges, but I felt the shit they talked deserved some sort of response... I didn't realize we were on first name basis. Benny, selling records is the best response. I'll let you know when I get the scan report Georgey. ple…
  • ^^^^Made a loop of the "rap" portion of Steve Miller's "Macho City" to use as a soundtrack to his pilates routines. Yeah, that just happened. hmmm... that reference is a little beyond me. you gotta dumb that one down for me son.
  • are you Cosmo? the Rub sucks. its all 30+ yr old chicks with facial hair. yeah, that just happened. [/b] HA HA. This is my new favorite schitt right here. Yeah, that just happened.[/b] I am totally stealing this line. El Mexcalito, if you …
  • plus man, you know that diss wasn't 100% serious... i mean they are old, and they do have some facial hair, but that shit was kinda funny, you gotta admit.
  • So next level. WOW. dude, you did provoke me. you and Georges. talk shit and I'll talk it back, what do you expect. yeah I'm gonna have to stand by my statement
  • And more often than not, labels deal with artists fairly. Like most businesses, you are short sighted if you think screwing people will get you ahead. There may be instances of labels screwing artists, but for the most part, the industry is struct…
  • [ Surely some record labels are floundering, but fuck them. As far as I???m concerned, they deserve to flounder for exploiting artists the way they have. -e artists aren't exploited. thats a myth. they enter into a contract freely, of their …

  • yoigotbeats i'm really trying to squash this at this point. you can post mine and yours if you want. i don't have those numbers to post, and i wouldn't if i did. i'm much more interested in debating industry trends than continuing this "me vs you…
  • my goal wasn't, originally, to complain. it was to discuss why hip hop is in the death state its in, using my situation as an example. i'm genuinely interested in hearing what people think about this and what they think the solution is. hip hop is…
  • major labels do not have their shit together and independent artists should not take them as an example. sure, sales are down but people BEEN making more money off other shit besides album sales for a while now. like i said before, i'm sympathetic…
  • I don't mean that kind of "watching". I am not talking about "WTF is he doin'?", when something goes wrong or you experience the music to be lame. i have no idea what this means in regards to the stealing thing, it's a faulty argument because me do…

  • well. . .as for my band(ugly duckling) we actually encourage file sharing and downloading. we look at is as a listening station. if your music is good people will buy it. if not they will not buy it. it's that simple. peace, stein. . . well, hey, …
  • It's not anything new is the point. This has been a conversation piece for, what, i dunno, 5 or 6 years? And, people are STILL all up in arms about this shit? but em - HIS SHIT IS BEING DOWNLOADED NOW!!!!!! HE'S WORKING WITH PRIME TIME CATS AND …
  • interesting. thats big that they can't share it. but i imagine they can't enforce the non-sharing policy
  • right. how is that mistaken. people take shit without paying for it. thats the definition of stealing. It might be under the certain laws of you country right now. But in my Country I'm not doing anything illegal. Not only that, but since 1998 …
  • right. how is that mistaken. people take shit without paying for it. thats the definition of stealing.
  • So, you are the reason that people like you don't succeed. You are the cause, and the effect. But your making it sound like all people downloading music for free off the net are thieves. And I'm sorry to say your wrong. how so?
  • i know right? You can basically get anything off the net if you are resourceful. I would like to say i dont download, but im currently a struggling producer myself, so i dont have 12.99 to go and drop on some mediocre album. Thats the way i see it. …
  • No actually Broadban is there. I can DL movies and TV shows within 20 minutes... Just set it up and let it run. The issue is that the Music Industry jumped on board late. That was the first mistake. By the time the Majors (that always dictate …
  • well you guys seem to be more technically savvy than me. all I know is, I dont know anyone that can rip a TV episode from iTunes. which I'd love to know, cuz I hate watching Lost on my comp. na dude its REAL easy to rip a music file from iTunes a…
  • people are not going to buy a product that they have to jump through hoops to use. the reason why the itunes store and others have been so successful is that you setup an account and then hit buy and the shit is on your computer. true -- but when …
  • OK I'm back you birches somebody said you gotta make your $$ touring and merchandising. as an artist, true, that is a significant part of your income. but yo, there really was a time when record sales were part of your income. there was a time w…
