Working in the music industry has taught me a lot of things, and if there's one absolutely genre-superseding fact that I have learned is that talent has almost absolutely nothing to do with "making a living" in the music industry.

Common example thrown around Nashville a lot: Taylor Swift would not be a "star" had her dad not pumped approximately $3million into her career at the outset. Trust me, I have come across more musicians with more talent in their pinky finger than Taylor Swift has in her entire body.

I wish I could listen to the tracks to pass judgment, but the site is currently unavailable. I'll have to check the tracks out another time. But all of this is moot, seeing as how anymore, 99% of musicians AREN'T going to be featured on TV, or radio, or ANYTHING of that nature unless they have money to back their career and a damn good manager.

Who is this Monroe poster from 10 years ago? Sounds like an intelligent young man.

Sounds like a poll Cellis033 can throw together: should Monroe be reinstated by BA?

Says page does not exist.

Does anyone remember the BAer who posted some rap songs about the superiority of OHIO basketball in the MAC. This was probably close to a decade ago. It was one of the few rap pieces I've ever liked. If someone still has an MP3 file of it, please post it again. Might think of playing over the Convo PA system.
