I dont have a problem with good music getting apreciated by the general
public but its a shame that it so often are the "weakest" songs from
those artists that get's airtime and ends up on the charts. (i.e. block
rocking beats, wich it far from the best thing the chem.bros ever made,
right?).
Hopefully what we see happening now will end up at a point where the
general public is open to whatever and and actually goes out searching
for *THEIR* music instead of letting MTV tell them what to listen to.
As i see it, even tho the media is starting to play acid jazz and techno
and whatever its mostly simple and "harmless" tracks that wont confuse
the mtv-crowd.

Example: 'dream on dreamer' is not the best song B.N.H. have released,
'If i ruled the earth' is probably THE worst Nas track ive heard,
Prodigy have a long history of releasing their weaker-tracks as singles
and 'block rocking beats' isnt even close to what chem.bros are capable
of making.

...atleast thats what i think...
