"If you're like myself and listen to DJ FunkMaster Flex show you'd realize that he'll play the same record over and over proclaiming how hot the record is. If you were to research the hot record he's so excited about then you'd find out that this record has been presented to him by Franchise Marketing.

This means DJ FunkMaster Flex is breaking a FEDERAL LAW and could be imprisoned like four of his former clients for 25 Years.How I know this is because I infiltrated his organization and collected enough evidence to put him and 25 other famous Radio DJ's away for a very long time.Now why would I do such a thing is because I am a patriot of the hip-hop nation and Mr. Aston Taylor (FunkMaster Flex) is a traitor to us all." :D

I kinda knew he was paid to play records, I never knew it was that serious though, oh well, if he does go down I wouldn't really give two shits, we don't need greedy mofo's like that.

Wake up, yall.  Everything this guy says is true.  Have you not wondered why you NEVER hear anything new on the radio?  Almost ALL radio stations have 100% concrete set lists.  For one, they have to pay royalties on everything they play, so they of course keep track of everything broadcast.  Two, any record label would gladly pay a radio station to play a new album.  It's been going on for decades.  There ARE some radio stations, and some shows on radiostations where local and unhyped music gets a chance, and then there's request channels where they play some old stuff, but all of the new radio stations play what they are PAID to play.  Hip Hop, R&B, Rock, even Country channels work this way, and they have for a long time.  People were paying dj's off in the 50's! Now, it's not the dj, but the whole friekin' station thats getting paid off.  Everybody knows about this.

^^ By the way.  If you don't believe me, try calling a NEW radiostation, during their regular broadcast times (Like power 98 or something), and request a song.  The DJ will pick up, and say maybe they can squeeze it in later.  If you request a song they play anyways, they'll just tell you it'll be on in the next hour.  Try requesting something like Snoop Dogg's "Doggy Dogg World" or something that never gets played anymore.  They'll tell you they'll see what they can do, and then never play it.  That's because it's not one of the new records they're getting paid to play 8 times today, or whatever, so they can't squeeze it in without squeezing out one of the new songs paid rotations.
