I'm not sure why Mos Def is so mad when radio has been paying artists part of a penny for playing their music on the radio so why is he now getting mad at streaming services for paying less than a penny for play when there was a time people was so fed up with radio and starting sharing and letting others download entire albums & discographies of an artist/groups without paying a dime or even a penny.

No, nobody should be happy to get a fraction of a penny everytime a song or album gets play but at least it's better than nothing.

Maybe this is why he was so happy to stop making albums with Rawkus/Universal Records, cause he wanted a bigger piece of the pie from his hardwork, I just wish Mos would stop thinking he's someone like the biggest recorded artist on the planet and everyone is waiting for him to release new music & will throw money at him like a stripper to hear it; shit I was pissed & waited two years before I purchased the "True Magic" cd cause it didn't come with artwork, no booklet, no info other than what was printed on the top of the disc itself, and they expected people to pay regular price for that shit...smh.

I'm I still hyped they got something on the way, but after all these years, I'm patient to where when it drops, it drops, and I'll still be skeptical if it would be worth even purchasing until I hear it for myself.
