This sucks... apparently the RIAA has cracked down on DJ Premier's podcast for broadcasting copywrited material. Please. The RIAA has its head so far up its own ass it can't see the light that is Primo. His show on Sirius is all about exposing new artists and breaking new shit. The bit rate of the podcast isn't amazing and it's not like he's giving away individual mp3's. He's simply archiving his own radio show. Apparently there was beef with Sirius as well. It all comes down to the $$$. Anyway, it's a real shame for those of us who don't have satellite radio and enjoyed rockin that DJ Premier show on our iPods all week long. Let's keep our fingers crossed that the RIAA and Hot 97 (Emmis Communications) don't shut down Peter Rosenberg's podcast. His show is on so damn late that half his listeners probably check it out on the web after the fact. Shouts to Premier, Big Shug, and Primo's Advocate, the dude who was apparently running the podcast site. Here's the official word:IMPORTANT SITE NEWS (ALL FANS & SUPPORTERS PLEASE READ!!!)
