lol, then you'd pretty much know that how the music industry works. The shitty thing is that PAYOLA IS ILLEGAL!!! But there's enough loopholes in place to make it felt loud and clear.

Its kinda obvious was my main point... If record labels didnt do it most of them would go out of business due to the fact that skill is a risk.. Where as putting DJ's on your pay roll equals constant success.

If a lot of people don't know it, I wouldn't really call it "obvious". Some people still believe that they're one hit away from being a celeb. They're right...but not for the reasons they think they are.
