Music Industry & Ripping Off People
We watched a video called "Merchants Of Cool" in class and part of it talked about the music industry and as soon as MTV found the band or artist out it the band probably sold its soul to the MTV corporation. For example ICP (insane clown posse) is a band that used to be underground but since MTV has found them out and exploited them they are worthless. They have done that with many other bands such as Slipknot and Disturbed (of those three i don't listen to).

I totally agree. A lot of bands that I listen to are underground, and are slowly getting into the MTV scene. Which sucks because usually when musicians go into MTV they become "sell-outs."
Any band that gets referred as underground by people, is no longer underground.
