There's No Payback So There's No Lay Back...

In my opinion, for quite a few artist, the music industry is one that chews you up, savors the flavor and then spits you out. They gotta stay skinny and they only allow a few artists to pass through the esophogus and go through the digestive process (I'm doin the most right?)

I was watching MTV Cribs and the first dude up was T-Pain...SMH.

He's got a lovely crib, very pricey (several cars, elevator, classy stripper pole in the basement)...but he hasn't had a song out in a few months and if I've learned anything in this recession that pricey ish can really drain the bank. AND with Jay-Z calling for the Death of Autotune and everybody and they momma doing it...what's the man gonna do now?

The news has been filled with reports of "entertainers" and their current broke status. Does this mean the end of this ballin out of control, flashy trend? I sure hope so...

Check out this funny video from The Daily Show where Slim Thug discusses the impact of the recession on rap here.
