Is XXX good for Hip Hop sounds?
So did I. Porn and hip-hop go hand-in-hand (literally.) Someone try pitch shifting a woman making an orgasm and syncopate it over your bassline. Place phat beat under it and KAPOW, an instant classic. -
Clearing Samples (for the underground artist)
I. I agree with your statements wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, there are gifted artists who associate themselves with "representation/management" that is incompetent. These people are usually stakeholders in the artist in some way, friends of the artist, or have some leverage over the artist -... -

THIS POST IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE: 1. If your song w/uncleared sample is not profitable you will generally not be pursued by the copyright owner for the usage of the sample. If you are a signed artist or are about to have the song released on a real record label there are a couple options... -

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3
LMAO. Please man - I ain't angry over any beef. I have enough money to not give a fuck. You're making it seem that way by your saying it. I personally couldn't give a fuck about your opinion, because it's just one person's opinion - but all I'm saying is Illmuzik has people that make bread... -
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3
I could give a shit about 5% - I know about that shit, and I couldn't give a shit. And as a "god" mc, you know full-well I'm talking about dudes that are platinum-plus and think they're the shit. Sorry my Webster's dictionary isn't the same version as yours. Don't put your argument into a... -
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3
That's right, you don't know what people are doing on this forum. You don't know who wrote a song and lyrics for a Bad Boy Ent. artist - who was called in to rewrite lyrics for a "legend" rapper on Geffen because that rapper was high as fuck all the time and couldn't even talk, let alone have... -
50 Cent claims that numbers for Lil' Wayne record unjustified
50 Cent Confused By Lil Wayne’s Large Sales Numbers And More In “The Roundup” 50 Cent’s had bill opening sales weeks. For all of his albums. But the G-Unit CEO said he can’t understand just exactly how Lil Wayne managed to sell all those units of Tha Carter III. Fif didn’t openly say there... -
50 Cent releases taped conversations with Young Buck - pretty effed up.
Young Buck Young Buck is a sacrifice. 50 threw him under the bus for publicity. Buck wasn't even a profitable artist for G-Unit anymore (like the others are?... lol). 50's basically reducing overhead. He stays loyal to Yayo and Banks because those are his homies from the hood. Young Buck... -
50 Cent releases taped conversations with Young Buck - pretty effed up.
You know, I think you're right SkidFlow. It seems to be a publicity stunt. Here's my theory: Now whether or not the conversation is real is not the point. I believe 50 dropped the recorded conversations because he wants to take away from Lil' Wayne's press cycle. Lil' Wayne has been... -
50 Cent releases taped conversations with Young Buck - pretty effed up.
50 Cent released taped phone convos between him and Young Buck. Taping convos is part of the game, for those that don't know - so 50 is handling business. From a 'hood perspective, I think it's fucked up - but Young Buck is CRYING on the second call. Here's the blog post with the... -

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3
How do you know someone on this site is not contractually bound to silence regarding ghostwriting and production for some of your favorite rappers that you think wrote their own lyrics? I know you're speaking of the public in general - but some cats on this site really understand their craft... -
EMI’s New Boss Sees Cracks in Music World
In the United States - the Beatles and Pink Floyd have a firm hold. The sales are consistent every year through each generation cycle. This is compounded with a greater hold of drug culture on mass-media. People like Elvis weren't part of the hippie movement which created the perpetual drug... -
Billboard: Lil Wayne Cracks 1 Million With 'Tha Carter III'
AC format for rap You're talking about an AC format for rap. It's already used to some extent, and in some markets, "old school" radio stations are playing a kind of "classic rock" (classic rap) format for rap music. It's not a new idea, but it's gaining ground (because hip-hop fans are... -
Billboard: Lil Wayne Cracks 1 Million With 'Tha Carter III'
Understanding that there IS a generational gap is the wedge that marketers use to push something like Weezy. That's why Wayne can sell 1 million, because kids are too young to know better stuff, and they also want something in their generation that's their "own". It happens in every... -
New nas song N.I.G.G.E.R
His lyrics are all over the place. NAS is one of my favorite rappers of all time, but he just doesn't deliver anymore. We don't "trust" him with the music he puts out these days, he's let us down on so many albums. It's like he doesn't even try to get his verbals on par with Illmatic anymore... -

EMI's back catalog Going with what Relic says - in the United States, especially with every evolving generation of teenagers Pink Floyd and post Sgt. Pepper Beatles are "rediscovered" by... this is not a demographically correct name, but it's what they are... stoners and college stundents. In... -
EMI’s New Boss Sees Cracks in Music World
Coldplay Coldplay has a #2 single on the Billboard charts. But they hired their own marketing and promotions company to bypass EMI's dismal employees. Coldplay has a 30 second clip of their video played on major TV outlets in the USA as an iTunes commercial. Brilliant move. I think Coldplay...
