Did you link a podcast?shyt ain't working brehs. There's like 4-5 major artists, a few that are bubbling and that's it.. everyone else the industry tries to push gets their 15 minutes and fizzles out. Also, everything is way too fragmented.

Dope. Yeah I remembered your name after your post.
At first when I read it, I was like damn... were you only in hip hop to cash out on a viral hit? And downplaying Slim Jesus wondering if you knew what it takes to make a video?
But then I remembered your name and the great things you've done.
My bad for my wrong assumptions.
You've done alot, you've got alot of attention and views, your original, and dope. Your videos are dope as well.
And you put a tonne of work in.
You're like the big celebrity that posts on Coli.
Stay doing your thing in in hip hop. I'm going to check out more of your work, big respect!
Music just ain't good as it used to be. Not even close
Music itself is revolutionary, the industry that helped pushes and releases these moments and recordings is exploitative.
Technology followed by laziness.
Whats the need for physical media when you have all the songs at your fingertips
Don't care. Gen X was conditioned not to care about record execs, A&Rs, or any of the middle men between the artist and the consumer.
Thread is comedy though because if you dig up old threads on streaming cats were acting like straight up mascots. Trying to guilt trip us into using streaming services.

. Really this shyt was over when Metallica sued Napster, the founder warned us.

I don't mean physical copies, those are dead.
Any song/album I want I buy and if it's not readily available I "obtain" it. The point is, you should always have a copy yourself.
Streaming services remove or edit songs at will. Look at how long it took De La Soul to hit streaming. Look at how they butchered BIG's music over a few samples. This isn't a problem (yet) for Gen Z but Gen X and Millennials should be wary of 100% relying on streaming.

The gift and the curse.
Artists must remove their music from streaming platforms. Or at least the ones currently out.
Artists MUST be able to sell music again.
Perhaps place 1 or 2 songs on a streaming service, but entire albums naw. We have an entire generation who think music is free.
Serious artists should not have their music on streaming platforms. Artists who have grown a real fan base shouldn't utilize the streaming platforms.

That makes the most sense. Singles on streams but album cuts are only available if you purchase the album.
Three of the biggest selling rap albums this year are 'Damn.', 'Curtain Call' and 'GKMC' .. that should never happen where albums that are YEARS old outselling almost everything new and by a wide margin lol
