Industry Shakedown: The Music Manifesto

The music industry is dying slowly. At least the industry as we knew it is—just check out last week’s SoundScan. In true V For Vendetta fashion, a masked Jack Davey—the singing, female half of the electro-soul-hip-hop duo J*Davey—has declared war against and independence from the music biz status quo. In this strange, yet poignant 11-minute diatribe against the big boys of music media (Universal, Sony-BMG, Warner, EMI, MTV, etc.) our Masked Avenger middle-fingers everyone from big wigs to personal assistants for turning a business based on art into a business that cranks out crappy product to the lowest common denominator. Is she buggin’ or kickin’ the truth to the young Black (and white and Asian and Latino) youth? You decide. Props to R. thentic
