Rules:
1. Use proper title format
Do not make up post tags. New releases should be tagged [FRESH], [FRESH ALBUM] (or MIXTAPE) or [FRESH VIDEO] only. [FRESH] tags should only be applied to official music & music videos, not leaks, interviews, articles, art, live footage, etc. [SHOTS FIRED] should only be used for legitimate beef, not jokes or competition among artists.
Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.
Post Tags:
[FRESH] [ORIGINAL] [HYPE] [SHOTS FIRED] [DISCUSSION] [LEAK] [MIXTAPE]

I mean yeah I did the same, but it's more of being a financial disaster for artists, for example when Shindy got his first album indexed and they had to re-release it. That was a major wrench in his finances imo
This was way after „my“ time. I can think of Bassboxxx, Hirntot Records etc - this stuff was pretty rude and well yeah debateable of course. Those dudes were just underground rappers who could never imagine someone out of their scope would ever hear that stuff.
Totally, thats fair enough, I think there are cases where it doesn't harm the artist but in some cases it can end up being a tool of sabotage by politicians for some sort of arbitrary reason.. Which is sad af
Sure! I am convinced art in any way should never ever be censored, doesn't matter if it's racist/anti-semitic/whatever - ppl who think like that will always find a way to consume music that matches their views and banning stuff will tempt ppl to find and consume media like that. I did it, you did it - there's no need for a authority deciding what is good/bad for young ppl. I know this is controversial, especially in these times we're living in right now.
Same with any form of media, publish whatever you want, you might get fucking roasted for it, but you shouldn't get censored imo
