TRUE HOUSE STORIES W/ TOM SILVERMAN (TOMMY BOY RECORDS) # 094 - PART 2 Tom Silverman explains different parts of the disco business and what led him to creating the New Music Seminar. Along the same time he begins to work out how to run a record label while helping out the owners of Importe 12. While he is writing his columns for Dance Music Report, he learns about a hip hop dj that was playing this eclectic sound of funk and rock all mixed up in The Bronx Area. He pays a visit to meet DJ Afrika Bambatta, and the rest is history. Tom loved what he witnessed and asked Afrika if he would like to make a record from all the tracks that you are playing in your set. At that precious moment Tommy Boy Records was created. We stopped the interview early as Tom promised he would come back and speak more about his life in the music industry. When he returns he would like to have all the topics the audience would like to hear about when he returns once again for another sit down as this will be scheduled soon.

BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the DR. BUTCHER & CJ MOORE interview session! Normally, this would have been a Twice A Week week. You know, the usual - mix show on Tuesday, all new joints, Meeks and Doe talking trash, and then an interview session to follow on Thursday. However, the universe had something different in mind. These two legends were originally scheduled to be on the mix show this week to talk about “AGAINST ALL ODDS,” their new project with DA ODD COUPLE (ROB SWIFT & MISTA SINISTA of the X-ECUTIONERS) and keep it moving - but this thing turned into a TWO AND HALF HOUR history lesson. We let the tape roll and said forget all the new rap this week, this conversation is too important to stop. No cap, as the young folks say - this is foundation / architect / cornerstone type content, Vangardians. While we did manage to get the low down on the phenomenal production & engineering Butcher and CJ provided on the new LP with Rob & Sinista, as well as why they pulled in fresh talent like KE TURNER & RAY LUGER as features - we quickly got DEEP in that hip-hop Encyclopedia Brittanica: 1212 STUDIOS.

In this episode, I explore the battle taking place bewteen Rap legeds De La Soul and the once legendary, but now notorious record label Tommy Boy.De La Souls catalog with the label has been plagued by legal issues over uncleared samples for 30 years. Their music has never have been legally available on streaming services and the catalog has moved from Tommy Boy to Warner Bros. and back again without the sampling issues being resolved. The Tommy Boy rep added sampling wasn't the primary source of their disagreement and “negotiating points are still to be finalized.” Tommy Boy Records has made a decision regarding De La Soul's digital catalog. According to a statement from the label, they have decided to postpone its release in light of the controversy surrounding the terms of their agreement with the legendary Hip Hop trio. “Because Tommy Boy has not had the opportunity to sit down together with De La Soul and finalize our negotiations — something we've wanted to do for months — we have decided to postpone the digital release of their catalog scheduled for tomorrow,” the statement reads. “We know fans are eager to hear these amazing recordings and we are hopeful for a quick resolution.” The group's first six albums — including the 1989 classic 3 Feet High and Rising — was expected to arrive on all digital platforms on Friday (March 1) at midnight. But De La Soul was incredibly vocal about the situation on their Instagram page and inadvertently sparked a Tommy Boy Boycott. As a result, TIDAL agreed not to participate in the streaming deal. In a recent interview with HipHopDX, Maseo said the boycott was completely organic. “Let me tell you what's crazy,” he explained. “We flirted with the idea of a boycott for a long time — for about a good month-and-a-half. We honestly wanted to be really clear on it being a boycott. It just sat there on our tongue. We were like, ‘What the fuck do we do!?' “We legally can't fight and can't afford to fight. We ended up refraining from that. Tom Silverman can legally do this. It's pretty much turned into a protest to us and a boycott for the fans. The boycott manifested on its own. It had been up to this point just a protest.”
