Has the music industry failed us? F**k yeah! But there's hope!
Every morning I wake up and turn the radio on, and always either hear Drake, Lil Wayne, Maroon 5, or some other overplayed goober. Now as much as i'd like to put most of the blame on the radio stations, I just cant.
I look at the record labels and hear and see all the trash they spoon feed to the public. They cram it so far down our throats, that were forced to eventually start thinking Lil Wayne sings like Michael Bolton. I mean damn, Adele finally got her plate served and she's been around for a few years, and Mac Miller, or even Trip Effect.
So many good talents go far below the radar, but its because the record labels feel these talents "wont sell" . Well record labels...screw you! For once I would appreciate hearing a song on the radio that i actually like that i can relate to. No I cant relate to Justin Beibers "baby baby baby ooooo" Because i'm not a 10 year old girl, and i actually like songs with meaning.
Sure i can just download music and play it in my ride, but then all of you would be missing the point i'd like to get across...and if you already missed....LAAWWWD GEEBUS help us all!
I shouldn't have to wait til 2am to listen to "new artists", because truthfully by that time i'm already hammered and wont remember shit. So out of anger i started attending local open mics and concerts, and even checking out facebook pages for artists i thought were news worthy.
Now it took me sometime to remember, but after watching Transformers i remembered and came across this feller.
i cant really put my finger on what i like about this guys style. The beats can be heavy and dope, then he can take it down a notch to something more of a Downtown LA lounge type of level. lyrically, I can probably trip out trying to figure out what some of the songs mean, because they can get pretty deep.
Artistic style is more Rap/Techno/Electronica/Dubstep. Sounds intimidating , but actually comes together quite nicely. I'm not sure how far Megagone will go, but hopefully far enough because i'm defiantly liking what i'm hearing. For example check this track out on his SoundCloud.

He seems to update it often with new tracks and pics, like the one i just jacked for my blog.
Well now that i've ranted and left you with some fresh music for you ears, soul, mind and heart....Go listen!
