Hip hop used to be a whole spectrum: EPMD, Rakim, KRS‑One, Run‑DMC, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Stetsasonic. Nobody sounded the same. (Not unlike many independent artists producing decentralized music in the V4V movement today). Jak Da Mak breaks down that shift in this clip and we go deeper in the full episode. The moment the culture disconnected, and why the roots still matter. The full Rollz Radio episode is here:

New Rollz Radio episode — this one with @Alex Nicol from @Strange Love Sharing a quick clip where Alex breaks down the simplest onramp for musicians stepping into RSS + V4V. Platforms like Wavlake and Fountain make it easy: Upload. Publish. Earn. In the full episode, he also breaks down the path for the fully self-hosted approach with XML generation platforms like @Music Side Project and Indiesats. No friction, no gatekeepers. Just music moving over open protocols. Full episode here:

@DuhLaurien ✌🏻👽💨 So I recorded the next episode of my podcast Rollz Radio (I talk to musicians about their music and life while discussing V4V). This guest is an entrepreneur and has a basic understanding of Bitcoin, but he’s not familiar with Nostr. He wants to put his music on Spotify and all the other platforms for maximum distribution. I meant to tell him about #HomegrownHits. What else can I tell independent artists like him about decentralized music distribution?
