HOW WHITE PEOPLE DESTROYED MIXTAPES

My name is Anonymous Music Guy. I do this for no personal gain or benefit of
self. This is just a personal weekly view of the music industry. Please pass
this on

Let's face it, white people today have destroyed the mixtape scene. They
have pilfered off of the black generation since the days of slavery, but now
it's a new era. An era of musical slavery. Mixtapes were once an outlet for
young people with musical energy to put out a product with out enduring the
costs of putting out an album. Mixtapes were a way for DJ's to broadcast new
and upcoming talent to the underground market with fans patiently waiting to
see who is next to blow. Now it's nothing but a pure bootleg market, where
non Black/Urban DJ's basically steal peoples albums and music and put them
out solely for profit and reputation.

We have guys like The Evil Empire, The Empire, DJ Smallz, Trapaholics, Big
Mike, DJ Drama and etc that are fucking the game to hell. These people have
no urban roots. They never lived in a "hood" and likely never endured a real
"struggle". They have no real care for this culture. All they care about is
there fat white pockets getting bigger and bigger off of each new "nigger"
that comes out. They don't break artist. They break artists banks. Literally
and figuratively. They put out mixtapes with no names to identify themselves
which is basically considered bootlegging. I even heard of one certain "DJ"
having a "hacker" on his team who goes into peoples Gmail accounts to steal
"exclusive" music. This one DJ recently took GRANDHUSTLE rap artist YOUNG
DRO's new album and put it out on a mixtape..... WHAT KINDA SHIT IS THAT?
How could you profit off of someones hardwork you did not pay for? You didnt
buy the beats. You did not cover the studio time so what makes you think you
can go out and bootleg there whole album and someone be cool with that? What
kind of shit is that? What has the game come to?

Then you have the supposed "Big Shots" like DJ Drama who give nothing back
to the black community. But it makes sense since he is not* BLACK*. I erk at
the sound of him saying "*NIGGA*" constantly. This guy has been supported by
so many artists and in return to the community he charges outrageous prices
to the people he supposedly supports. Homie does nothing but scream all over
music, I don't know how that makes you an "icon" that deserves 20 thousand
dollars to make a "mixtape". I'm sorry sir I'll pass. His last album did
nothing and went by quickly *with good reason*. Go back up north. Good
riddance.

The young black musician of today, with music dreams and major label
aspirations has to hope and pray that one day the BWM(*Big White Man*)
sitting in his chair will cut him a budget and give him the time of day. If
he ever gets that time of day, it's very much short lived for the simple
fact of the corruption placed in the music industry today. It has spiraled
and regressed into a piece of shit where young black people will sell there
souls for a little dollar.

The white man who profits will never care about
the damage that is done, I don't blame him. I blame the enslaved black
youth for not waking up.

Don't be a slave to your music, be a owner!!!

Artists have totally devalued there music and self worth in the music world.
Is there any coming back?? better yet, going forward?

Call me racist, call me what you want but WHITE PEOPLE have destroyed
mixtapes. 

Next week, how WHITE WOMAN have destroyed the Urban Magazine Industry

please pass this along.

Sincerely,
Anonymous Music Guy

niggas really do enjoy shittin on drama nowadays. i have no opinion on that specifically, but i will say that drama's pops is black and he's from philly so i hope whoever wrote this gets equally annoyed when drake or any other rapper who's not 100% black says "nigga." other than that, some good points are made, although i'm not sure about dude's elijah muhammad "blame the white man" steez but to each their own

What an ignorant and cowardly post.

"Let me post some stupid shit but not put my name down because I know it is dumb and can't be supported by facts."

Way to support it Judah by posting this on your blog but pretending to not be associated with it. You don't have to put it up but indifference is just silent acceptance.

I guess Russell Simmons was never the head of a big label? Neither was/is Jay? Oh and LA is actually the head of the BIGGEST LABEL in the world. Literally.

Get your facts straight before you come with straight ignorance again.

Maybe the mixtape has been ruined, but blaming it only on white people is about the dumbest thing I have heard in years.

blunted said...

it was me... I destroyed mixtapes. My bad.

Anonymous said...

is this guy fucking serious? you act like black DJs dont do the same shit... so many dumb ass statements i wont take time to respond to each.

i swear some people blame "the man" for everything they can..

DCSuperSid said...

I agree with Corey, if you're going to post "opinion" it's really cowardly to do so anonymously. There is a place in journalism to protect the identity of people who are revealing inside or classified information. But everything he's saying now was said 2 years ago by Jermain Dupri and co-signed by Lil Wayne.

WHITE DJ'S BLACK DJ'S.....NO DIFFERENT

I THINK MIXTAPES AND ZSHARE AND FREE DOWNLOADS AND LIMEWIRE DESTROYED THIS INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE

JUST MY OPINION

IM WHITE BY THE WAY...BUT THIS ARTICLE DOESNT OFFEND ME CAUSE ITS HALF TRUE AND HALF IGNORANT AND HATEFUL

I MEAN...DJ DRAMA IS JUST AS BLACK AS BARACK OBAMA

SO BARACK OBAMA IS A BLACK MAN CAUSE HES PRESIDENT BUT IF HE WERE A MIXTAPE DJ RAPING URBAN MUSIC HE WOULD BE WHITE...

THATS WHAT YOUR BASICALLY SAYING

DJ Torkaveli said...

The white devil is the reason why it gets dark at night, and whitey makes my car run out of gas after i drive it lol

Anonymous said...

Maybe if your mixtapes were better we wouldnt have to destroy them.

FreeHundreds said...

LMAO @ Tork

Forreal, it's more on artists than it is on anyone else. If yall knew the business, made more conscious decisions, and overall took responsibility for your career path then you can't blame anyone. You think "whitey" would pull "that" on someone he knew he couldn't? Never. Smarten up!

J-Sparks said...

I wouldn't totally put it in the "white man" like homie said, this fuckery is perputrated by a group of elite people which includes all races. And these people's only concern is that green dolla bill. I think this post wuz super racist. You have to also put in consideration that majority of the hip hop consumers consists of middle class, suburban white kids. Let me also ask u one questions brotha, how many times have u been to ur local barbershop and have or one of ur homies has purchased a hip hop album from ur local bootlegger? We're all guilty for the demise of hip hop, directly or indirectly.

If somebody buys into my 5 Linx business...Ill co sign this..LOL!

FreeHundreds said...

Are you ever going to post my commnts? Damn..

City / Prolific M&M said...

this is rediculous and racist, yes the industry is in a downwards spiral because of illegal consumption of media but for you to go and place the blame of the "white man" you have made an unnessicary and very disrespectful statement. Do your research before you come to a popular web blog in the DMV and spit pure ignorance. Your intentions were good i assume, but your arrogance got the best of you. P.S. stop blaming the white man for everything, as i can see you have issues being that your next post was going to be how white women corrupt the media as well.... get a life....

sidenote: I bet he's gonna end up marrying a white women and becoming uncle tom. great job.

thanks for the entertainment .

Holla at my man A&R Drekz he'll have U're music way out in fuck'n Austrailia but it'll cost U $200 a slot...lol!!! Payola in some form or another has always been a part of da music industry PERIOD!!!

Now dat's fucking da game up 4 real 4 real slim, fuck a mixtape joe...lol!! Aside from DJ Drama's ridiculously high price structure & da fact da he's money 1st talent last he's mostly helped da mixtape game as far as I'm concerned. I ain't gonna lie I am a lil' biased tho. I mean he's done Gangsta Grillz joints wit E One Letter & King Swagg & dat's F.A.M. right there. DC don't even have a mixtape circuit at all & he's reached out 2 DC, MD, & VA DJ's, artists, & producaers & vica versa. Stop blame'n da "whtite man" because U're grind is poot butt...slavery is over niggaz!!!

First, I'm a white woman who works primarily in the Urban Music industry. No one has personally attacked me based on the color of my skin before but I have seen many things like this post over time.

The race war and pointing the finger at "the white man" will never die, which is unfortunate.

I've struggled with many mishaps and misfortunes in my 5 year career thus far in this industry, and have yet to fuck anyone over. Quite frankly, its been the reverse.

I'm collectively owed over $10,000 for hard work I put forth toward 5 separate individuals company's or careers (who happen to be black) and yet, I've never put them on blast or talked shit about them and damn sure haven't blamed it on their race because I don't believe it has anything to do with the color of their skin.

In the end, it's not about white or black or asian or hispanic - it comes down to the INDIVIDUAL. This world is riddled with greedy people who do things for the wrong and right reasons. We should never assume what someone's upbringing was like. That's sheer ignorance right there.

This industry is VERY fucked up - but it's not solely because of a "white person". Many have played a part in its demise.

I agree with some points made in regards to the music industry within the write up, but I totally disagree with the "white man did it" standpoint taken and furthermore I could rattle off just as many names of black people in the entertainment industry that have done things to the same extent in regards to mixtapes and wronging artists in general and so I dont think this is a black/white racial issue like dude is sayin. -Sketch.

HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! THIS IS THE GREATEST POST EVER CANT WAIT TIL NEXT WEEK!

THIS POST COULD ONLY HAVE BEEN BETTER IF HE WASNT ANONYMOUS.

K'lajh (backrowdmv.blogspot.com) said...

uhhhhh, is he serious? This is clearly a joke of some shock "journalist" trying to get a rise out of people. That "white man did it" line is played out and has been played out since like 1980 or something. If anything all the names he mentioned actual did a lot for mixtapes but not so much for the industry as a whole. They branded themselves and put out several projects that do provide many artists with exposure. At the end of the day, the only party that is really losing any capital is the label execs who have no creative talent (and are usually white). So, I just take something like this with stride just like a do all the other people out there trolling around. That next post he/she has lined up sounds ridiculous
