The Death of Myspace

Honestly, do we even care anymore? Do you remember when you’d log on and be like, “Ohhh yeeaaa…NEW MESSAGE“. Now, those messages don’t consist of words from a long lost friend, someone looking to hook up on the music tip…but more like a flood of ads, group invites, people wanting you to listen to their album…you get the point.

I can remember when Myspace first took off with being able to upload your music and get the exposure most dudes from the 90s could only dream of getting today…and honestly it worked for a while. I was able to meet cats on there that till this day I still work with and have built relationships.

But of course, it was inevitable that the good times would come to an end once people got word of how big a platform Myspace really was. It literally spawned the career of a teenager named Souljah Boy who went on to sell millions of ring tones and had Grandparents doin the Superman (Wow). Not that I’m mad at lil’ homey, Getcha Money ya know, but all it takes is 1 person to create an avalanche of bullshit which we’re experiencing right now.

So as it stands today, Myspace has created a new genre of artists kids as seen below:
