Changed the industry forever, one of the last few times we actually had control over the narrative. The BlogEra was as close as we can get to this but streaming coupled with the industry itself all but killed it.

It seems like Drama's case was more than 15 years ago. I guess I was wrong.

    Pretty much. Didn't like the idea of us controlling the narrative without lining their pockets.

    I hated hearing about about this because I feel like it dried up the mixtape circuit. These dudes literally got popped for chump change, its not like they were running Enron. You literally saw artist trying to stay sharp in between albums lyrically.

    The RIAA must have sent the goons after them.
