On some rare occasion I think I get like some old tracks on "old school hour" but if I hit up a rock station, man they got like all generations of rock playing. Gospel stations do the same thing. Old school Kirk Franklin etc.... But soon as I bust up a rap station I hear that bullshit from 2chains or big Sean |

I'd be more in agreement if you said its racism. Payola has been around since radio began playing music. Yes, it impacts what is played, but market demand impacts whether a radio station stays in business and determines a radio station's format. |

This is true. But I didn't think I needed to re-mention that racism indeed, motivated this brand of payola...as this brand of payola was put into effect by the the forces controlling the *vid & quote* which I submitted here the other day that you inquired about. And please do reflect on how...If it was merely just normal payola that has "gone on, since radio began playing music" then---would it have wound up in U.S. District Court wrapped in the racial-objectives it was wrapped in? I think not! So again...research the case if you get chance, and once you see the rarity of payola-racism on trial, you might grasp my post from the other day where the White guy who worked for President Reagan affirmed the nation's dedication to controlling Black populations thru vile & self-destructive music.

I don't doubt it. I agree that payola is part of it. The radio station is still market driven. No amount of Payola is going to get a Public Enemy played on Q101 (Easy listening). The person who listens to Rap is simply not their market. On the other hand, a little Payola, to get a certain artist played in a market which supports it, goes a long way. |

Negative black rappers haven't been held accountable for negative raps songs. It's time for black people to confront the negative black rappers, because they are like a cancer on our race. |
