Also, JD salty as hell because his vision of the industry shifted towards a direction that he can no longer do.

Why is it that producers and artists talk about this "good Ole days" shyt when they are creativity broken, but was fine ages ago in their own balling expertise :francis: ...

It's a tale as told as time.

No different from all them ole heads in the 90s talking about the "hip hop in the park" bullshyt, while JD was kicking it with Xscape and Kriss Kross.

JD is right and at the same time wrong. The music elevated beyond the labels. You have children listening to afrobeats, kpop, and Yung whatever the hell. The industry back then strive for labels and what is easily marketed.

For a teen bop singer, there was tours, shows, merch and etc. nowadays it doesn't work like that given how oversaturated the industry is.

Then you got to factor the endgame of the music industry and the powers that be. They are literally trying to groom the children into adulthood. Meaning, the WAP songs and the messages from artists can kill what Innocence a child and teen has. Leading to some changes in laws and regulations that will lead chills down your spine.

This is wild orchestrated on purpose as the music industry can easily influence the masses, especially the youth.
I agree times and the industry has just changed now. Kids are exposed to way more real world shyt nowadays so that teenager music shyt will not work in this era. Labels sure as hell aren't sinking any money into it let along regular rappers or labels.

Jd stfu. Chu Sellout culture thief c00n.

You are why there are no teen groups.

As you misappropriated the teen market. By never creating acts that actually made their own music.

Then when an artist created better music than you in every way. You was gon shelve them. Then sold them to the highest mca way meets creator of the harvard project bidder. in clive davis ala alicia keys.


Shut yo mouth sellout.

Stop letting these culture thief sellout payola phonies hide their hands.

Classical music is damn near the only radio music that's safe to play around little kids

"what's cellblock one and why doesn't he want to go there? What's so special about that place?" try explaining that to some young kids while Kendrick is busy calling everybody a pedophile on the song getting played across the country everywhere

Glorilla wearing booty shorts cause her paper long. Makes absolutely no sense I still don't understand what she meant by that. Booty shorts used to be cut up jeans, yall paying for them now? Wtf? What does your paper being long have to do with booty shorts?


Detroit rap might as well be the mob speaking, every song is violence


Chris Brown knows u got a man but he don't care u gonna give it up to chris right now bytch, tee grizzley on deck

Switch to the pop stations, everybody at the bar getting tipsy at 730am on the way to school. Perfect song for white folks who hate rap but love when country artists steal music line by line. Rihanna still getting excited by whips and chains


There's nothing being played on the radio anymore that doesn't channel Satan. All of the popular music celebrates debauchery, hedonism, materialism, drug and alcohol abuse
