And he is still an indie artist. Just because he payed the distribution company does not mean they have any control over his music.
Yeah, you know, except for the fact that they control who, what, when, where, and why it goes where it goes. But I guess that's a small piece of control....

Theres a shit ton of artists that are considered "mainstream" that I bump too all the time. If an artist was successful enough, he can go mainstream or underground and still sell million along with keeping his fan base. People like Jeezy, UGK, Jay-Z, Trae Tha Truth, Gucci Mane, etc, have proven that. You can hate them or love them, but theres no denying going "mainstream" did better for them to thier careers.

But see, signing a distribution deal and signing a record deal are two completely different things. He payed the distribution company, they didn't pay him. They are working for him, he is not working for them.
Why do you think ICP has gotten so much publicity lately? Tons of interviews, their own TV shows, actual POSITIVE interviews. None of this happened until AFTER the left Red and Singed with Fontana. (I did just learn that UMG is no longer part of Fontana so that's cool
Macklemore is not a Mainstream artist just because his album (or some songs on it) has mass appeal. He made a smart business decision.

I guess what I meant is he is still getting most of the money from his record sales. He used them as a tool, he didn't let them use him. So yes, their money got the song on the radio, but he is still independent in the sense of artistic freedom in integrity, which was what the point of this conversation was in the first place.

We should send Warner Brothers letter bombs for that one, abolutely hate macklemore. I have that stupid song in my head all day everytime I hear someone playing the radio and it comes on. Which is like, everyday. Give me immunity and I will gladly shoot that worthless fuck in the face without a second thought or an ounce of remorse. Someone needs to boot macklemore in his pretty pink vagina.

Twiztid is too shitty to even be in the underground they could never be mainstream as shit as mainstream music is its better than twiztid their last LP was so horrible I would rather listen to a 400 pound man have diareah for 40 minutes than ever listen to that LP again.
I been saying fuck twiztid since even before they left psychopathic they just plain sucked the only fans they have are the emo juggalos out there that enjoy crying to emo gay music.
Is this a long-running joke that has been around since before I got on the site, or is this dude serious? Also I want Poutine. Do you speak French, smack? My homie is french canadian.
