"People think that the internet has made music more democratic but it doesn’t, blogs only wanna post what will drive traffic, what drives traffic is what’s popular, what’s popular is usually a mini update on something else… with hip-hop it’s even worse, labels do this “ghost A&R” thing like they did with artists like Odd Future, even cats like Action Bronson, Death Gripz, etc. They’ll be signed to a label but no one will know, and they’ll market them like they are underground and fans can’t tell the difference… motherfukkers just sop up whatever is put down in front of them!"
