Shut down Radio One and BET. They don't want to support independent artists, yet fallow their racist employers who would love to see their culture stripped away from them. By all means, let them crash and burn while they promote drug porn music and satanic videos. Losers! 107.9 is the worse station I ever heard in Hip-Hop!

We need the fairness act again, if radio wanna only play the same 5 songs everyday they should get taxed, fined, billed, and pay restitutution for limiting all music genres 2 commercial music only theres alota good music out there but radio refuse to support diversity. black radio is even worst its segragated they only play ignorrant dumb down music we are more diverse in the hip hop community and radio just wont show diversity, we just here the same ol shit. Where is the good music?not radio!

Record Lables are the real pimps here and where are the artist at on this issue,some where waiting for a check from them same radio station that made them.

How about a performance tax imposed on all the artists that really suck. Which is about 99.9% of all music on the radio.

John Conyers should beaten to an inch of his life for this dumbass idea, probably picked it up from that douche relative Monica.

More taxes = more problems, doesn't anybody understand? More taxes, less spending

[KatsuyaKaibaChan]

He doesn't seem to get radios playing artist's music are already paying them...by freely promoting their music and making people want to buy their CDs. And the Artists won't see a dime of this, it's going to the record companies.

[101LegendKiller]

Yeah, the guy's a fucking transvestite..

[julietttify]

there's no such thing as a performance "tax". that's a lie, flat out. it's a fee.

all other vehicles, ie internet stations pay for using music. why should FM stations be exempt?

[ubervirgin]

Apparently Conyers has no clue how much the radio industry is already hurting.

[djstitch]

Now what do we do for those that WERE in Radio that can't find another job? Especially myself! .. (Out of work since 2007.. :( )

[Docthewrench]
