Coz is kinda right though, Vanilla Ice continued to get support even after he was found to be a fraud. The beasties were parodying rap on the first album, and found success. They have done some good and even great music, but PE has made some Great music that had to be released independantly. Queen Latifah has her own thing goin' so she can promote her own. PRT..... I thought they were dead, but that goes to prove Coz' point. Bubba Sparxxx is still doin' sh*t and he suxxx.
He will NEVER have the impact PE, PRT or PM DAWN ever had, but he will be marketed. Have you ever watched BET and saw this guy
Stagga Lee? He gets airplay EVERY NIGHT ON thier shows, but the
"ol' School" artists sit at home and reminisce.
I think music is music no matter who makes it, but there truly is an incongruity in the relationship of $$ spent backing Black vs. White artists.... ESPECIALLY OL' SCHOOL.
