Quick question here in tampa bay area we just got a new radio station that caters to 80s,90s,00s hip hop and r&b do these old school artist get paid for each time radio plays their songs??
"RADIO PROGRAMMERS are now charging 200k for Airplay cause of the pressure from Youtube & Streaming"
- Thread starter KENNY DA COOKER
- Start date
I'm pretty sure it depends on how their publishing is setup. In that regards I doubt if many are seeing anything from it and those stations are now popping up all over the country

So you need 200k to become famous with a platinum record these days? Damn no wonder all these labels are pushing are actors and stuff. They the only ones with the money to do It. Truthfully if I had that money to Invest in a single I'd be hustling backwards. Fame is not that important. And I don't got dirty money to wash
Famous people don't say this.

I'm sorry breh...you have to understand your old head demographic no longer matters to this generation of hip hop and accept it.PRoblem with this is old heads aint on these young dude platforms like that

People who still buy retail CDs and listen to the radio and want to be spoonfed music....are gone and a nonfactor in 2017.
I havent listened to the radio myself since 2005.
it depends if the artist is a registered songwriter with BMI or ASCAP which tracks spins on terrestorial radio broadcasts.
if the artist is registered then they are ENTITLED to a Performance Royalty per play
which BMI and ASCAP pay quarterly
but unfortunately many old school artist signed deals which only garnered them Mechanical Royalties (sales percentage per unit)
ive always registered my artists to a Publishing Rights Organization (BMI) based on the licensing clause i include in my contracts
Because i feel its the ETHICAL thing to do

Unless you're running a major record label, it's really hard to became rich AND anonymous off music. If you're an artist, slim to none. You gotta be on some AR Rahman type shyt to be wealthy off making music yet do whatever.

I'm just saying if I only made 200k I wouldn't blow it all on 1 single. That's bad business imo. 200k would be a lot to me right now. But if I made 50 milly. 200k would not be shyt. I would easily put that in plus probably a lot more just to smash some of these fake ass records these days.
It would take me being rich first to blow up as a music artist because my vision wouldn't involve people trying to dictate my path. Found out I am much too stubborn personality.
Yo they really do this tho.....I remember my wife called in randomly to hot 97 and she actually got on air and they told her to say she wants to hear bone thugs first of the monthfcking radiodo radio stations still do the fake call-in's with people requesting songs?
Ebro doesn't get credit for having front-office experience to complement his on-air experience and is generally one of the smartest voices on mainstream hip hop radio, but as this clip also shows, he has emotional outbursts and a temper that get him in trouble and/or rub people the wrong way.
