Busta's seen plenty of waves in the industry through his veteranship, so there's some interesting words below considering the topic of "legal," and "illegal" Internet piracy involving goliaths Spotify and MegaUpload, the latter that, as you know, was nixed by the FBI last week.
Here's some tweets (by the way, keep in mind that artists make about $0.03 cents for every stream on Spotify) courtesy of Busta:
"1st of all I am soooo proud of my brother @THEREALSWIZZZ 4 being apart of creating something (MEGAUPLOAD) that could create the most powerful way 4 artists 2 get 90% off of every dollar despite the music being downloaded 4 free...
With labels and companies doin' deals with Spotify and many other companies like it who doesn't give us sh*t...
[they] continue 2 do what they do and blatantly show us how much they value the artist with doing deals of such disrespect and lack of value 4 our content...
I am proud 2 stand next 2 my brother @THEREALSWIZZZ and fight the good fight...
Our freedom is truly being f*cked with in a very significant way and I strongly suggest 2 all artists especially the 1's Swizz repped 4 comes out & reps 4 him!!!"
There's nothing I really need say, so throw up your thoughts.
