Check this out! I know I ain’t Ebert or Roper but I’m givin’ this one Thumbs up! What can I say, I’m a sucker for Hip-Hop related documentaries cutting a fine line between the culture and money hungry b!tches capitalizing on our culture… Mixtape, Inc. is a detail oriented look into the illegal business of Hip-Hop Mixtapes. It’s practically a war of words between DJs, Performers and Retailers vs. Record labels and copy right codes. The documentary also breaks down how music is listened to now and how the success of a Mixtape alters how albums are bought… who really is cashing out with big revenues and who’s paying the price and sacrifice. Mixtape, Inc. features MixTape entrepreneurs   DJ Clue?, DJ Ron G, Kanye West, G-Unit, Xzibit, DJ Kayslay and DJ Green Lantern breaking down the history within the Mixtape Industry, the money and the truth… Hustle for that paper!

Peep the Product description…

There’s a battle brewing with the Mixtape DJs, Performers, Retailers and Buyers on one side and the multi-billion dollar record labels and copyright infringement authorities (RIAA) on the other. Mixtapes have become an important and hot part of the Hip-Hop culture, revolutionized the Hip-Hop music industry and changed the way we hear and buy Hip-Hop music. The financial stakes are extremely high. These entrepreneurial compilations are now the root of a new power struggle, the urban streets of America vs. the traditional corporate music industry.
