Just now, I received a comment on a youtube video I’d made a few years back to go with a track that I liked, by a New York latin-rap group called Spagga & La Raza, that I hadn’t been able to find online. Here’s what the comment said:
wow…..That was one of the first songs i wrote. Thanks whoever you are for bringing me back to reality!
Spagga
This seems to indicate that the actual artist commented on my youtube piratification of his song, in a positive way. I’m deeply impressed. He’s just acquired a much more dedicated fan. This is the spirit in which I wish all artists would view the youtubification of their work.
What I’m listening to right now.
[UPDATE: myspace is broken (go figure). Unable to find replacement track online. Yay internet.]
Spagga aka El Presidente de Hip-Hop, “la vida.” De su myspace – warning: it opens a new tab or window if you click it. The myspace player is a little bit annoying. But it’s ok.
