Help Making Money

Ho! Ho! Ho! And a Merry Christmas to you all!

It's that time of year again and I've been so busy making Xboxes and E-readers and blankets with arms in them that I sometimes forget there are others like me doing good works but who are in need of some help.

These other "Santas" operate on a shoestring and need money to do their kind deeds. Unfortunately they can't do what I do to cover the cost of my operations. (I rent out my North Pole facilities to Superman eleven months of the year for him to use as his Fortress of Solitude.)

So Mrs. Claus, the elves, the reindeer and I are asking if you could make a last minute donation to one of the six worthy organizations I've listed below. Or do it as a gift in someone else's name and make that their Christmas present (thus fewer chimneys for me to go down. I know, I know, stop with the burgers in a donut bun.) These Santas will then turn around and use your money to create gifts greater than anything I could ever make in my workshop.

Here they are:

** The Innocence Project. Hundreds, if not thousands, of Americans sit in prison tonight having been wrongly convicted of a crime. They are 100 percent innocent and the system has the DNA samples to prove it. The Innocence Project is an amazing group that provides free attorneys and researchers who devote their time to freeing these innocent men and women. It's no mistake that human rights groups place the United States on their list of countries who throw the innocent behind bars. No country on earth (including China, with four times the population of the United States) has more people in prison than America. Please give to the Innocence Project so that those who've committed no crime do not spend another night in jail -- and so I don't have to spend so much time on Christmas Eve going through security when I make deliveries to them.

** The Bradley Manning Defense Fund. If I witness a crime while making my rounds on Christmas Eve, and I report it, I'm considered a hero. (Sometimes there's reward money!) Private Bradley Manning of the United States Army allegedly came across video of his fellow soldiers gunning down and killing in cold blood two reporters from Reuters and a group of Iraqis who were civilians. He apparently decided to report this crime to the American people. For this, he has been arrested and thrown into the brig -- where he has sat in tortuous solitary confinement for seven months. He is also believed to be the source of thousands of documents obtained by WikiLeaks which show the disgusting and immoral behavior of your government and Pentagon as they've prosecuted two illegal wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is a true travesty taking place and it's being done in your name. Please contribute to his legal defense fund and please send him a holiday card at:

Bradley Manning

c/o Courage to Resist

Oakland CA 94610

USA

(See BradleyManning.org for how to mail things to him directly.)

** WikiLeaks. What more needs to be said? Frankly, in retrospect I'm GLAD they leaked my 2009 Naughty & Nice list -- especially the parts about the U.S. government. I know that may hurt a bit for those of you who are Americans, but trust me, it's good for you in the long run. What I do foresee in the coming year, though, is a battle for who controls the internet -- and those in power are going to find ways to clamp down and not make it so easy for all of us to share with each other so freely. (Another good group to give to that is helping to keep the internet free is Save the Internet.) From the Iraq War video to the proof that you're backing a corrupt government in Afghanistan to the fabricated cables sent to the Bush State Department from Havana about Mike's movie, WikiLeaks has performed an invaluable service. As long as they don't dig into what my elves do in the 11 months they're on vacation, I'm solidly behind WikiLeaks.

** The Water Project. Over a billion people on this planet have no access to clean drinking water. Approximately 2 million children under age 5 are killed each year worldwide by a water-related disease. This is insane considering we have the technology and the people power to fix this in a very short time period -- if we wanted. The money from just one year of the Iraq War would pretty much take care of it. Sad, isn't it, how we're capable of so much more, of being so much better. The Water Project is a hands-on, boots on the ground organization that's digging wells and getting clean drinking water to the Third World. This is one delivery -- water for a billion people -- that just doesn't fit in my sleigh.

** Park 51 Islamic Community Center ("The Ground Zero Mosque"). Here's a tip: if there's anything that will get you a lump of coal in your stocking, it's hating people based on their race or religion. And I'm sorry to say, folks like that were out in full force this year. They even won themselves an election. Soon they will hold congressional hearings to out America's Kenyan-born Muslim president. (My team's already getting extra coal ready for Christmas 2011.)

Meanwhile in lower Manhattan, a group of people who happen to be Muslim want to build a community center. They asked the Jewish Community Center in Manhattan for help. They helped them. It was so nice it made me think I should branch out into Hanukkah and Ramadan. Then the haters showed up. But I believe Park 51 will win this fight. Please help them.

** Democracy Now. This great daily show presents the news we never get to hear on mainstream radio or TV -- especially at the North Pole, where for some reason the cable system only runs the Hallmark channel and Spike. Amy Goodman and Co. do an incredible job bringing the truth to the American public every morning. I listen to them and I support them. (And I support all efforts for non-profit, community-based radio stations. You can learn more about that movement at Radio for All.)

So give if you can. I know these are tight times for most people and you've got yourselves and your families to take care of. I hope this time of the year is going well for you and if not, then please know that there are many -- including me -- who care about you and yours. Working together, it will get better for everyone.

Finally... those of you who don't have chimneys, could you possibly leave the door open this year? I don't like it any more than you do when I have to break in through your bathroom window.

Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night,

Santa (c/o Michael Moore)

It looks like Shep Smith isn't the only person on Fox News that was shamed by Jon Stewart into getting a bit tougher on these Republicans for filibustering the first responders bill. Chris Wallace brought up Stewart's interview with first responders to Jon Kyl, and in response we just got more sorry excuses as to why he still would not support the bill.

Kyl Denies Health Care For 9/11 Rescue Workers Because He Doesn’t Want To ‘Hurry’:

Last week, an incensed Jon Stewart invited 9/11 first responders to the Daily Show to offer their thoughts on this callous behavior. “Disgusted” and “hurt” by their actions, the rescue workers admonished Republicans for using the holiday schedule and Senate process as an excuse to block desperately needed help. Recounting their criticism today, Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace asked Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) why he couldn’t “find a way to give these heroes peace of mind when it comes to health care.” Ignoring their emotional pleas, Kyl insisted that, while he didn’t want to deny care to those who desperately need it, he just refuses to do so “in a hurry”. [...]

Kyl’s excuses fall flat in the face of fact. Any cries for more time ignore that both the Senate and House version of the Zadroga bill have been available to Kyl since 2009. If a year with the text wasn’t enough, Kyl was free to attend the bill’s June 2010 Senate hearing he insists never happened. Had he shown up, he would’ve learned that the bill is very clear on who is eligible for funding. First responders can pursue compensation established by the Zadroga bill to bolster any coverage already received from the current health fund set up in New York City.

As Jon Stewart pointed out earlier this week as well, after refusing to give these first responders health care, none of these birds should ever be allowed by our media to invoke 9-11 for political purposes ever again. Let's hope this thing gets passed despite the continued obstruction by the likes of Kyl and his fellow shameless Republican cohorts.

Transcript via Nexis Lexis.

WALLACE: Joining us now, two Senate leaders, the number two Democrat, Dick Durbin of Illinois, and his Republican counterpart, Jon Kyl of Arizona.

And, Senators, welcome back to "Fox News Sunday."

KYL: Thank you, Chris.

WALLACE: Senators, before we talk about issues that have gotten a lot of attention, I want to ask you about one that hasn't, and let me begin with you, Senator Kyl.

Will you vote this week for the 9/11 bill that would guarantee health care for the first responders who went to Ground Zero?

KYL: I don't know if that bill is going to come before us, but Dick tells me just a moment ago that he thinks that it will. First question is, is it amendable, or is it a take it or leave it proposition? The bill hasn't been through committee. There are problems with it.

And I think the first thing Republicans will ask is do we have a chance to fix any problems that may exist with it. And it's a lot of money, and so I -- my early response is that I am skeptical about that bill.

WALLACE: Senator Durbin, Republicans in addition to Senator Kyl say - - Republican critics say that you're creating a $7 billion entitlement, and that the way you pay for it is a corporate tax increase.

DURBIN: Chris, I can tell you that Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer have been working nonstop for the last several weeks with Republicans to try to find the best way to approach this. These first responders literally risked their lives when they went to Ground Zero. They came from all over the United States. And now many of them are struggling with health problems that are clearly directly related to that experience. To turn our backs on these brave people is the wrong thing to do.

Will it cost money? Yes. Is it the right thing to do? Yes. We've got to find a way to fund it that's acceptable to Republicans and Democrats.

WALLACE: Well, but let me ask you about that, Senator Durbin. If this 9/11 bill is so important, why is it that the Democratic- controlled Senate never held a vote on this bill until the lame duck session and that President Obama, the best we can tell, has never said a word about this bill in public?

DURBIN: I can't tell you where the White House stands. I hope they support it. I will just tell you this. This is like an airport that has a runway closed down. We have aircraft stacked up trying to land. We have bills stacked up over the Senate because of the nonstop filibusters that we faced this year.

I wish we could have done things more efficiently and more directly. But we've lurched from one 30-hour delay to another 30-hour delay to more Senate quorums. This Senate could be much more efficient. It should be. And it should be much more bipartisan than this.

WALLACE: Will this bill pass?

DURBIN: I think this bill will pass, and I do believe that Senators Gillibrand and Schumer are working night and day to make that happen.

WALLACE: Senator Kyl, one of your objections is -- he was blaming you for the filibusters. One of your objections is that Harry Reid put too many items on the agenda in this lame duck session.

I want to play what you said and then how one of the first responders who now has cancer reacted. Let's watch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KYL: It is impossible to do all of the things that the majority leader laid out without doing -- frankly, without disrespecting the institution and without disrespecting one of the two holiest of holidays for Christians.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

(UNKNOWN): I'm here to say that you won't find a single New York City firefighter who considers it a sign of disrespect to work in a New York City fire house on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

WALLACE: Senator, everyone -- everyone -- praises the first responders as heroes. You say you're skeptical about this bill. Why not find a way to give these heroes peace of mind when it comes to health care?

KYL: Well, first of all, they should have peace of mind when it comes to health care. The question is what and how.

And when you try to do it, as you said in your introduction, in a hurry, in the lame duck session, without a hearing, without understanding what the ramifications are and whether we can amend the bill, you're doing it in the worst way.

For example, there's already been a settlement for a lot of these people, a fund that has been set up for them to receive funding. Will the people that are supporting this legislation be able to participate in that fund? Nobody has been able to say. Why $7 billion? What will the requirements for qualification be for the money?

Nobody wants to deny care to people who -- and by the way, these are primarily people who helped to clean up the site in the aftermath of 9/11, and there weren't adequate precautions taken in some cases to deal with potential health issues. And to the extent that they've become ill, they do need to be taken care of.

It's one thing to make an emotional appeal, to say we need to care for somebody who did something good. It's another to do it in a sensible way. And that's all we're asking for. You bring it up in the lame duck session with no opportunity to amend it, and you're probably going to make bad legislation.

WALLACE: Let me move to...

KYL: All of this could have been done earlier, I might add.

foreclosure list

While oil washed onto the shores of Florida, Democrats got wiped out of the House and Glenn Beck brought the Tea Party to Washington, Black Planet members were equally busy debating how these stories were not only affecting them but impacting the future of African Americans. However, none of that really matters because what bubbled up to the top of our most active list was far from discussion on Capitol Hill. Take a look below to see who and what moved the meter on Black Planet. Recognize yourself or any of your friends on our list?

Most Popular Profile

Member MZHONEEBROWN squashed the competition with her little high heel and climbed to the very top of our most popular profile list. A quick visit to her page and you’ll understand why. She’s a single mother, author, dental professional and still finds time to stay connected to thousands of her friends on Black Planet. If Black Planet had a list of 30 people doing big things under 30, she’d get our nomination.

Most Popular Political Figure

President Barack Obama has taken a lot of heat lately from Republicans, members of his own party and the BP community if you ever visit the Current Events boards. However, you still couldn’t stop yourself from clicking on his profile page and that makes him the most popular political figure in our community.

Most Helpful Member

Member Nuage was recognized as a BlackPlanet Rising Member of the Month for a reason. While you were sleeping she was busy sending aid to Haiti. Yeah, we think she’s a saint, too.

Sexiest Destination

We think we have some of the most attractive members and now you can confirm what makes them so sexy in our quiz. What’s Your Sexiest Quality answers the big question: what about you drives the opposite sex (or same sex) wild. This is where we make that annoying cat purring sound.

Want to see what else topped the list? Check out the photo gallery below.

Most of us won't be retiring anytime soon. But for those few who will be saying goodbye to the workforce forever in the next few years, the people at TopRetirements.com have put together their list of the worst states in which to live out your golden years.

Here is TopRetirment's list of the bottom of the barrel:

1. Illinois: IL's fiscal health could be the worst of any state. It even borrowed money to fund its pension obligations!

2. California: The Golden State is expensive and its finances are in disarray. Has paid bills with vouchers. Does have a warm climate.

3. New York: Very high taxes, including property taxes. Second highest tax burden and 5th highest per-capita property taxes. Dysfunctional state legislature. Very expensive to live here. Most pensions are exempt, however.

4. Rhode Island: Probably the worst off state in the Northeast from a financial viewpoint. High taxes. Does have some great places to live.

5. New Jersey: The highest property taxes in the U.S. as well as the highest tax burden (as reported by the Tax Foundation) Has serious pension funding issues.

6. Ohio: High taxes (7th highest tax burden) and unemployment. Cold winters.

7. Wisconsin: A high tax state (9th highest tax burden) with cold weather. High property taxes. But it does not tax military pensions.

8. Massachusetts: High taxes including high property taxes. Very high cost of living.

9. Connecticut: CT has the 3rd highest tax burden of any state, taxes social security, and has very high property taxes. It has some terrific places to live, but the cost of living is very high.

10. Nevada: The foreclosure capital of the world. State is having financial problems. But it does not have an income tax (yet).

The site does add the caveat that its list might be "totally irrelevant" to some people:

Folks for whom money or taxes are not important will find our worst 10 list of little value, because they have other considerations that are far more important. For example, those who want to retire near their family members have such an important driver that the "worst" state on this list could be their "best."

White House Acknowledges Some Low Wage Earners Will Have Less Money In Their Pocket Next Year – Today’s Q’s for O’s WH

December 08, 2010 4:07 PM

National Economic Council director Larry Summers and White House senior adviser David Axelrod joined White House press secretary Robert Gibbs at today’s briefing.

As first noted by the New York Times, some low wage earners may be getting the fuzzy end of the lollipop in this tax cut compromise, in the sense that they may have less money in their pocket next year as opposed to this year. That’s because they receive tax credits through the Making Work Pay tax credit, which expires at the end of this year. That tax credit will be replaced by a payroll tax reduction of 2% -- and for some low wage earners, the tax credit is bigger than 2% of their income.

TAPPER: I was wondering if you could comment on the New York Times report today that those at the -- at the lower end of the economic spectrum will actually be the only ones with less money in their pocket as a result of this deal because of the Making Work Pay elimination and the...

SUMMERS: It's a good question. It's a very -- it's a very good question. You -- you have to figure out what comparison you're going to do. It is true that for a $16,000 a year, so that's an all-year minimum wage worker, it is true that the Making Work Pay would have given that -- would have given that worker $400, and the -- this proposal, the pay roll tax holiday, will give $320. That's -- and there is that $80 difference. On the other hand, the proposals, such as the House bill that contained the Making Work Pay, would not have -- would not have included any of the three refundable tax credits that I mentioned, which, cumulatively, for that family, on average are worth several hundred dollars.

Obviously, it depends on how many kids the family has and what the situation is, but on average would work out to about $300 for such a family. One. Two, would not have included the continuation of unemployment insurance benefits, which provide $300 a week in benefits. And, three, takes no account of the extra growth increment that will come from this program. If you raise GDP by 1 percent, that's $2,000 for the average family.

So we, as -- as I've emphasized, this was a compromise. But if you look cumulatively at the elements that were in this compromise, relative to no deal or even relative to the bill that passed through the House, that $16,000 a year family gets much more support from this bill than it would have -- than it would have in its absence. And we believe you have to look at the totality of the program, not just take one provision from it and compare it with one provision in some other bill.

(CROSSTALK)

TAPPER: But, just to be clear, there are those on the lower end of the economic chart who will be -- who will not benefit in 2011 compared to 2010 in this deal, while everyone else on the financial spectrum will.

SUMMERS: No. No. That's not right. That's not right. But you just said -- what you just said is factually -- is -- is wrong.

TAPPER: A single person. No family. Doesn't get a child credit. $16,000 a year.

SUMMERS: Right. That person will get $320. That person will get -- will -- will get $320.

TAPPER: As opposed to $400 this year.

SUMMERS: Right. So there's a person who, if they have -- if they don't benefit from the unemployment insurance, if they don't benefit from the economic growth, if they don't benefit from the EITC or the child care or the American Opportunity Credit, might be $80 behind. There's a far larger number of families, however, who will be hundreds, if not thousands of dollars ahead, because of the refundable tax credits, because of the unemployment insurance and because of the growth.

What’s funny is, I remember calling Eskay earlier this year and talking to him about a certain label and majors in general. We never really came up with a plan on how to implement a blog community embargo. Mainly cause people are in this “game” for different agendas and it’d be damn near impossible to get everyone to cooperate. Besides we still got some sites that are in the back pockets of labels that wouldn’t dare rage against the machine (How else would their interns get paid?)

I’ve almost stopped paying attention to the content aggregation and just going a completely different direction. I’m not worried about the #freeonsmash movement (they’ll be fine, whaddup hof) I’m worried about what ARE WE GONNA DO AS A COMMUNITY to show the machine, we can play hardball too.

It’s time to start to creating and not rely or depend on an “exclusive new lil ___” or a world premiere JAY-__ West” –>insert canadian rapper here<– .mp3 to draw in the masses and dedicated readers of our site.

That where in lies to problem, OUR ability to create and maneuver around the machines bullshit.

Did I mention I was blogstradamus? probably means this mini rant will be ignored until it's too late. word to niggas on the corner holding "the end is near" cardboard signs.

And that is a big reason why we’re all (bloggers, artists, labels) in the fucked up situation we’re in now. You know who has some power to help though? Artists. You guys need to step up and show some nuts man. You guys talk real tough in your raps and you say you support these sites when you have an album dropping, but then I don’t see you running up on your label’s VP of Legal demanding that the threats stop. If rap blogs helped you sell records, or launched your career, or got your name back out there, then guess what? It’s time to man the fuck up and put some pressure on those labels that you claim work for you. Stand up for something before there’s nothing left to stand up for.

^^

This rant would mean a lot more if there wasn’t a complex media toolbar at the bottom of the page and all types of ads surrounding it.

When your talking about “counting your money” you make for aggregating content from the same artists you are claiming to “help” ( and seriously, are you really helping Sean Combs at this point? or Wale? or Donnis? FOH) while simulanetously showing disdain for artists who don’t wanna play by your rules such as Wasalu or Curtis, how can you be suprised at the results?

You aren’t a tastemaker anymore– if you were, you wouldn’t post half the bullshit you post.

You want the pageviews, the ad-clicks, etc, and the more you have hoared out your internet space, the more you have brought on your own situation you find yourself in now.

You wanted to be part of the industry so bad you have now become tied into the politics– and the labels have been playing the game MUCH longer than you have, with a lot more resources.

The smart thing to do would be to PROVE your power (such as it is) to said labels and stop posting ALL of their shit– NOTHING from Atlantic, Interscope, etc.

Focus on artists you actually like and wish to promote– if you actually feel that you have the ability to create an artist and sustain their buzz, PROVE IT.

But you won’t.

Because now you need the money those established artist brings via their page views.

And thats why you fail.

IE used to be less secure than Firefox. I’ve heard it’s on par now with its security, but after installing AdBlock on FF and Chrome, I hate whenever I have to use IE for something. I also think Firefox and Chrome are faster, and their interfaces are easier to use for me. Those last couple things are just my opinion, though.

Firefox and Chrome are also easy to customize – you can put iTunes controls in your browser, block all ads (I don’t see anything on NR except the Complex bar), etc.

IE is a dinosaur…..its like having dial-up internet.

Google Chrome (for example)….has built-in spell check, tabbing which make multiple page viewings easier, it’s super fast, and it has a unique way of downloading files that I’m too tired to explain.

Just make the move.

It’s also less prone to shutting down, popups and viruses.

Is it really, though?

I thought you owned the blog?

Or do the labels own you?

Whats the most important thing to you?

You integrity? Or your payout?

I mean, you can have both, right?

Or are you more concerned with one than the other?

Because that’s what Ashmi’s 5,000 words at the top of this post sound like– he seems more upset that he’s realized he’s being used than anything else.

And if you truly feel like that, and you have any ounce of integrity or belief in your product, then you would simply say no.

But like I said, your survival is now tied into posting the video’s of Sean Combs, and the pictures of what CamelGOAT had for breakfast, and Kanye in his latest evening wear…

And the occasional Fred the Godson video– ya know, to keep it real and all that.

Seems like a reflexive relationship. Either one would have trouble existing without the other.

Then when it comes to gettin money…limiting the blog to just your own music tastes would definitely limit the visitors and hence the payout. All this integrity talk vs. earnings sounds like some ‘ol Obama vs. Wall Street crap to me.

Why go into business if not to make a profit? Otherwise the shit’s a hobby (like most aspiring rappers out there).

great read.. very true and very sad… gone are the days when you have the hot record on radio and its all you need… at this point both the artists and labels are getting sad for example puff has numerous videos out and the album hasn’t even dropped officially so a month or so after it does the hype will cease the record sales will slow all the way down and it’ll be on to the next project… value your own shit what happened to letting each single live a little like the old days…

I thought you owned the blog?

Or do the labels own you?

^^^^^^^^^^^^

Seems like a reflexive relationship. Either one would have trouble existing without the other.

Then when it comes to gettin money…limiting the blog to just your own music tastes would definitely limit the visitors and hence the payout. All this integrity talk vs. earnings sounds like some ‘ol Obama vs. Wall Street crap to me.

Why go into business if not to make a profit? Otherwise the shit’s a hobby (like most aspiring rappers out there).

Either way, I don’t check Nah to see what music Eskay or Nation likes. I check to see what’s new and to see if I like it.

^^

Thats the key though.

Why complain then?

The fuck this fat nigga got to be mad over? Telling artists to “take control”… For What?

Niggas know you still gonna download their song links to hulkshare and post them diligently.

And if he is saying, “Yea, I just wanna make my money,” then why is he ranting about what he would happen if he stopped posting their shit?

Its like I said– his survival is intertwined with these labels and their artists– he eats because they provide the REASON to come to his site, so what the fuck is his problem?

If you really feel some type of way, then say “No thanks” and deal with whatever consequences that arise.

Or just shut up, smoke your weed, and keep paying for loosie cigs and 50 cent bags of Doritos from the Corner Bodega with your ad money.

Simple as that.

Oh yea…and then to download it for free of course. But if I can’t get it here…it’s not hard to google the song and get off of Hulkshare or some other file sharing service…for now anyways.

But in my college years I used to hit the garment district and buy fake Jordans and AF1′s to flip by the box…I know around this time every year is when the Feds crack down on illegal goods…I guess they decided to crackdown on music sharing this year too.

You have no power, b. Your not important in the grand scheme of things.

Your job is to promote these artists. They don’t give a fuck about your opinion, or if you shit on their work.

They just want you to post it on their site.

These companies do suck at the internet .. haha.. Very well articulated, they are watching their own demise. Just like you stated above about evolving with the times and technology. Just like they figured out a way of becoming profitable with MP3 w/ I tunes and all that. They need to react with a practice that helps them earn revenue in this blogosphere. After they deduct what they should PAY YOU for giving them access to all your thousands of readers. They are on the brink of losing major exposure. And I highly doubt anyone standing up.

Sounds like this has been stewing for a while. The entire media industry is full of this fuckery.

One of the biggest manifestation has been Viacom suing YouTube and then the allegations that Viacom employees were uploading their promo content to YouTube.

And just last week we learned EMI posts songs on rapidshare and yet it’s the same industry that’s trying to sue them.

Sony arguably suffered the worst loss. Sony the music label / movie studio basically sabotaged Sony the technology company. At a time when MP3 players were just starting out, Sony hit us left, right, and center with their bullshit proprietary file formats. Then came the music cd rootkit nonsense where they were basically planting viruses on our computers. In the end, Apple basically came out of nowhere and stole their mojo. And I don’t feel the least bit sorry for them.

It’s like the media industry doesn’t have a clue. Type in your favorite artists/album into Google and add “rapidshare”, “usershare”, “sendspace”, “megaupload” or what ever and you’ve got a download link for what you’re looking for. Everytime one of these goes down, more just keep popping up.

Basically, the world will keep turning. If it ain’t on nahright, it’ll be some other blog. So I don’t blame eskay for competing. Plus the division between major / indie is so blurred these days it’s silly…have your favourite “major” label artists are on Koch.

Killing OnSmash was probably one of the stupidest things I ever seen. But whatever, life goes on.

The funny thing is that embargoes basically don’t exist on blogs. Usually the consequence for violating one is that your site gets blackballed from future exclusives. But industry’s got no choice but to come back to the same blogs because of how much reach they have lol.

so Blue Flame Agency sent a video to world premier but it was a raw copyright material that if uploaded to Youtube or any other video site the audio would have gotten silenced or removed altogether…

you don’t like the song…

your not getting compensation to post it…

You don’t have a video player nor do you want to sent it to ONSMASH to upload it fearing a C&D notice or even a shutdown…

why bother then w/ the labels & agencies that make you go through these obstacles?

they’ll still pay you for an 2 week album advertisement wallpaper on the front of the site. right?

if the major artist & label want to you to premier a music video require that its already been uploaded to their generic youtube or whatever video player instead of a raw video file..

problem solved no?

Thats What I Came To Nahright For… Along With The Clever Commentary And News Quips And All That…

Record labels are vampires resistant to adapting or even changing…

w/ mp3 & Napster first appeared they sick their RIAA dogs on 12 yr kids thinking that if they sue these kids for millions of dollars that it would deter downloading of music files…

they’ve controlled the record industry for a long time…for the better part of 10 yrs or so they’ve had very little control w/ their pockets getting lighter and lighter…with youtube, blogs, shutting down torrent & p2p sites they’re trying to regain control again…

yet and still, fuck face bitch niggas like Jihad keep coming back because these comments are the highlight of their sad miserable lives.

^^

Funny thing is he stays coming back for the same reason labels stay coming back – to generate buzz. People on here looking for new music so what better place than to promote your own? Jihad could easily post his music on other blogs but ain’t no one checking for it.

At the end of the day if it ain’t nah right, it’s some other blog / website. But since it just ain’t the same elsewhere, we just keep coming back nah right.

We continue to debate back and forth yet we’ll still be back. And NahRight keeps ticking until the Feds are called in. And the audience fragments and tries to flock to whatever is next.

The industry basically wants something like radio where they have more control over the content. They can try to start their own thing but it’ll just flop cause they won’t have the audience. So they stay mad cause they gotta deal with all these sites with the audience they’re after.

On the real, Hulu’s the closest I’ve seen to media companies understanding the Internet. But of course, it’s only in the US so they stay losing.

>and if you have to ask what’s wrong with IE in 2010….

i know i’m late to the party but…

it’s the lack of extensions, for most people

and for developers, IE8 still fails the latest Acid test (although IE9 should pass): http://acid3.acidtests.org/

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3

“Acid3 test is a web test page which can be found at acid3.acidtests.org from the Web Standards Project that checks the performance of a web browser regarding the issue of following certain selected elements from web standards, especially relating to the Document Object Model (DOM) and JavaScript.

If the test is successful, the results of the Acid3 test will display a gradually increasing percentage counter with colored rectangles in the background. The number of subtests passed will indicate the percentage that will be displayed on the screen.”

The machine of creating content need to move with the technology and not against it. Hip-hop music is a 21st century musical discipline, which is constantly on the cusp of technology. We are witnessing the fall of what we used to remember of the music industry. Eventually only a hand full of artist will be on majors, while the rest will be independent. It work make fiscal sense to do it any other way.

in the grand scheme of things.

the owners of this blog doesnt really have to explained/answer to anyone here. they can really do what the fuck they want whether for a hobby or to get paid.

who gives a shit.

i come to see whats new and i probably wont buy it,(unless its some necessary things) just like what he said, there are other blogs out there. if u dont like it u dont really have to come.

but ill be coppin that detox though.

Seems like a reflexive relationship. Either one would have trouble existing without the other

^ You don’t seriously think record labels, which existed for decades before nah right, would “have trouble existing without” it, do you? even if you were referring to blogs in general, i disagree. before blogs, people were on discussion boards spreading the word about music (and promo types came through to spam)
