In a recent interview with whomag.net, KRS-One explained why his music is never played on mainstream radio stations. Apparently, KRS-One will sue radio stations if they play his music.
If the radio ever played my music, I would sue them, KRS-One told whomag.net And they know it, which is why they dont play my music. If you play KRS, Ill sue you. Straight up. I dont even want my music on mainstream radio. They dont deserve it. They destroy careers.
Elaborating further, KRS-One explained why he never felt the need to crossover with mainstream audiences.
Heres a secret, KRS explained. Im going to drop a jewel on you right now. Less is more. Small is big. Marketing and promotion is s---. Physics, mathematics, and cosmology. Why do we breathe? What is oxygen? This is the truth. I only want the truth. I existed before the mainstream. Why would I join them? I watched the mainstream come up and now Im watching it collapse. I dont want to be a part of that. I was born in Hip Hop. Thats all I ever needed. Thats it.
I would be shocked if you were not a Tull fan.
Talk about blues, rock and Classical music coming together.

Little Milton has a choice to make.
A choice between self determination and falling in line with Government/media control.
Really don’t mind if you sit this one out.
My words but a whisper your deafness a SHOUT.
I may make you feel but I can’t make you think.
Your sperm’s in the gutter your love’s in the sink.
So you ride yourselves over the fields and
you make all your animal deals and
your wise men don’t know how it feels to be thick as a brick.
And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
in the tidal destruction the moral melee.
The elastic retreat rings the close of play
as the last wave uncovers the newfangled way.
But your new shoes are worn at the heels
and your suntan does rapidly peel
and your wise men don’t know how it feels
to be thick as a brick.

Wow.
WoW
How did you find this band ?
I love it !!!
I can’t help myself playing that song over and over again.
If you are into that, I’m a fan of nearly anything you can feed me.
ALL I could possibly feed you is some Discipline:
Or Indiscipline:
But I’m sure you’ve heard it before.
I was going to show you some King Crimson or Adrian Belew, but as I continue to listen, I am humbled by this band.
I love that it has this Irish freedom sound.
Wow
And Wow again.
It’s Jethro Tull meets Robert Fripp.
Thank you
It was the roots of Tull.
I have that Crimson LP
I can hardly compete with BLODWYN PIG
I could talk about Jethro Tull, but whats the point.
It’s not a question of popularity.
It’s a question of inevitability.
OK, so loop the audio back on its self
It’s totally messed up.
Ian Anderson is a Genius
Listen to his music or his interviews.
You want to hear something wild ?
Play Blodwyn in one browser and wait 37 seconds and play the same song in another browoser.
