DJ’S VS ARTIST

THE GREAT DEBATE

BY: J-Prince (POTC)

   Recently there has been a great debate in Music about the importance of The DJ. In recent reports Jermaine Dupri has stated that the DJ is Dead, and just recently Lil Wayne set the Hip Hop community on fire by saying fuck all DJ’s. The confrontations have even turned physical with Game attacking a DJ in Dc a while back. My question is who is more important the DJ or the artist? If you think about it one hand watches the other, because if the artist stopped making music the DJ would be out of work and if the DJ stopped playing the Music the artist would be out of work. So can’t we all just get along!

    We are now in a time where the DJ has become just as big as the actual artist; Look at the success of DJ Khaled, Who Kid, Funk mast Flex, and DJ Drama. These DJ’s have taken the art form to another Level. DJ’s are releasing albums, getting shoe deals, and becoming power players in Hip Hop. The DJ has become the new celebrity in music business, But with the recent success of the DJ’s there has been somewhat of a downfall to the culture.

 Back in the days the DJ’s played the background and broke records. In those days DJ’s were not afraid to take risk, they just wanted to be the first to play a record. Some DJ’s of Today don’t know the true element of Breaking records and actually keeping a crowd rocking. Today’s generation of DJ’S never touched a turntable or even know what a record looks like, Now don’t get me wrong there is nothing wrong with laptops and I-pods, but today’s DJ Needs to educate themselves on the art form.

A lot of artists are frustrated with the DJ because of the politics they must go through to get their record played. Radio and Club DJ’S are not playing shit! Unless you breaking them off, and that’s killing the culture. If an artist gives me a record that’s dope I am going to play it! Today the DJ has become more corporate and developed the “what have you done for me lately attitude.

In a way the DJ Has become the competition for the artist, now DJ’s produce and make their own albums. Just last year DJ Khaled had three Top Ten hits on the radio, for a DJ that’s unheard of. Today’s DJ’s are managers of artist now, so that means they are going to play their artist music before anybody else’s. It’s a constant battle between the DJ and the artist. The DJ has been playing the background is it their time to shine? To be continued.

IT PAY$ TO BE INDEPENDENT: By J-PRINCE (POTC)

In the past 10 years Hip Hop has become a huge financial powerhouse. In 2006 Hip Hop grosses and astounding 500 million dollars in revenue. Record labels and large corporations are cashing in on the success. A big part of the success comes from Hip Hop artist establishing their own companies and investing in lucrative business ventures. The current trend today in Hip Hop is owning your own label. Its kind of like somebody asking you do u want to rent an apartment or own a house? ..It’s really a no brainier. There are different Kind of label deals . . . for example in the late 90’s Rap mogul Master P was able to work out an 80/20 split with Universal. This meant that universal handled all of the promotions/ Marketing and distribution of all cd’s. This was a power move because Universal is the biggest distribution imprint in Music. This deal seems lop sided, but everybody ultimately wins . . . For example. Universal agreed to this deal with Master P, because Prior to the Mass distribution deal Master P sold over 500,000 copies on the street alone. Distribution companies will easily take that risk, because they know that Master P has a huge fan base and that without major promotion. Once the marketing muscle of a Universal gets behind you than the possibilities are endless and the were as Master P’s first album sold millions of records. Artist today are truly maximizing their potential by independent ownership of companies. The artist wants to keep the labels out of their pocket. It was reported in the early 90’s that the hit R&B act TLC was only getting cents on each cd sold. TLC sold millions of records during their run, but still ended up going bankrupt. Artist today are learning from the financial pitfalls of the industry. They have living testimony from artists like Mc Hammer and TLC.

Ths second and most popular form of the independent route is signing to independent labels. The most notable Independent label is Koch entertainment. Independent labels like Koch or TVT records will allow the artist to have full creative control of their projects. Koch is the ideal label for artist who may not be as popular to the mainstream audience. Artists like “BG,” jim Jones, and the LOX are signed to Koch. Independent labels generally don’t promote their artist as well as major labels. Promotions and marketing is generally handled by the artist. Some labels will only pay a certain percentage toward video shoots our marketing. Record labels usually will pay artist five cents to a dollar per cd . . . In dependent labels pay their artist 5-8 dollars per cd now do u get it? . Most labels invest millions of dollars in marketing and promotions and the cd only sells 500,000 copies, they lose money on that project. In the independent market an artist can recoup money spent with one week sales. For example Lil Johns Classic cd “Crunk Juice” sold over 2 million records independently. Now multiply that by 8 dollars per cd….that’s insane money! Even established acts are taking the independent route, because they to want that big return on their cd. There is no pressure to move a large amount of units, If an artist can move about 200-500,000 on a cd, that’s a huge success. So now with this knowledge learned would you go with a label or go independent . . . I think I know your answer. Record labels are like cooperate pimps . . . Please don’t become their Ho!
