really? everyone has different taste?
as an artist living in the Bay, I feel obligated to NOT support this kind of music making its way to the mainstream. Since so few artists from the Bay get any shine, the rest of the world gets the impression that songs like "Fasst" and "Vans" are accurate representations of what we do out here. When, in reality, those are novelty songs based on catch phrases and fads that will soon fade away. We have a lot of talented artists out here that could really become factors in the game. However, by supporting anything Bay related (no matter how bad it is) we're sending the message to the industry that we are just mindless groupies who don't even care about the music. We lose credibility that way and it only hurts the talented musicians. so I think we should be very picky about who throw our support behind.
