OCCUPY THE AIRWAVES...RADIO SUCKS!!!

OKAY, I’LL START BY SAYING THIS…THE MUSIC INDUSTRY SUCKS!!!! NOW THAT I’VE GOTTEN THAT OUT OF THE WAY, LET ME EXPLAIN. THE WHOLE WORLD, WELL AT LEAST THE PEOPLE IN MY WORLD, HATE LISTENING TO THE RADIO NOWADAYS BECAUSE IT SEEMS AS IF THE DJ JUST PULLS OUT SOME RANDOM GARBAGE ASS ACT ,THAT ONE OF THE MEGA LABELS HAVE DECIDED TO PUT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BEHIND, TO FORCE FEED US THIS GARBAGE! NOW, WITHOUT CALLING NAMES, WHY ARE WE FORCED TO LISTEN TO SO AND SO AND SO AND SO? WELL, I CAN GO ON AND ON ABOUT THE MANY “CONSPIRACY THEORIES” THAT I HAVE BUT I’LL TOUCH ON ONE THAT AFFECTS ALL OF US INDEPENDENT ARTISTS…WE HAVE NO SUPPORT FROM OUR DJ’S, RADIO STATIONS, AND MOST OF ALL, OUR COMMUNITIES. COME ON PEOPLE! LOCAL ARTISTS IN THIS COUNTRY SHOULD GET AIRPLAY AND LOVE FROM THEIR DJ’S! I KNOW HERE IN THE MIDWEST, OUR LOCAL RADIO STATIONS PLAY EVERYTHING FROM JAY-Z TO GUCCI MANE AND GIVE US A COUPLE HOURS A WEEK FOR LOCAL ARTISTS THEN SAY THEY ARE SHOWIN LOVE? WTF?! WHY ARENT THE CLUBGOERS, REQUEST LINE CALLERS, HOODRATS, BALLAS, ETC. REQUESTING THEIR LOCAL ACTS? CREATING A DEMAND FOR THEIR LOCAL ARTISTS? HOW DO YOU EVER EXPECT TO CREATE A MARKET HERE IF WE DON’T SHOW THE INDUSTRY THAT THERE IS MARKET POTENTIAL HERE? ANOTHER THING, US LOCAL AND INDIE ARTISTS HAVE TO (DEEP BREATH) HELP TO PROMOTE EACH OTHER! STOP ALL THIS HATIN AND NETWORK AND POOL RESOURCES! IF I’M THROWIN A SHOW, I WANT THE PROMOTER TO ALSO BOOK EVERY HOT LOCAL ARTIST HERE! THAT BENEFITS ME AS WELL AS THEM. WIN-WIN SITUATION. SO LISTENERS, FUTURE LISTENERS, DJ’S AND RADIO STATIONS, SHOW YOUR LOCAL ARTISTS SOME LOVE. DJ’S THE COMMUNITY SUPPORTS YOU, WITHOUT THEM THERE IS NO YOU, SO WHEN THEY SPEAK YOU BETTER LISTEN OR ELSE! IT'S TIME FOR ALL INDIE ARTISTS TO STAND UP AND GO HARD! INDIE MUSIC FANS, OCCUPY THE CLUBS AND THE AIRWAVES! DEMAND THAT THEY PLAY WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR! DJ'S, WHEN OUR FANS START DEMANDING THAT YOU PLAY OUR MUSIC, LISTEN OR...YOU COULD BE SCHEDULED TO DJ AT ONE OF THE HOTTEST SPOTS AROUND THEN WHEN NOBODY SHOWS UP EXCEPT THE BARTENDER AND THE JANITORS, YOU’RE THE ONE WHO’S GONNA BE SAYING… WTF? REMEMBER...WITHOUT ARTISTS AND MUSICIANS YOUR JOB WOULD NOT EXIST!
