A true artist does not depend on radio for success. A true fan does not let radio determine what they support
My fondest memories were watching the Beastie Boys get prepped to come on stage. They had a lot of antics and they play a lot of basketball... then they were giving out cameras to the crowd, and performing from the bleachers. The most important thing I learned was that you control your crowd, not the other way around.
I think hip hop is a dance music that's rebellious by nature.
