Frank Ocean, JAY-Z - ​blonded RADIO Jay Z Interview lyrics

Jay-Z: In this day and age-

Frank: yeah

Jay-Z: I just don't know

Frank: yeah, yeah

Jay-Z: Take radio for instance
It's pretty much an
Advertisement model you take
These pop stations
They're reaching 18-34 young white
Females so they're
Playing music based on those tastes and
Then they're taking those numbers
And they're going
To advertising agencies and people are
Paying numbers based on the
Audience that they
Have so these places are not
Even based on music their playlist isn't
Based on music if you think
A person like Bob Marley
Right now probably wouldn't
Play on a pop station which is
Crazy it's not even about the DJ discovering
What music is best you know
Music is music the line's just
Been separated so much that we're
Lost at this point in time they have to
Revolutionize that thing, you know
Be more progressive i think with all
The technology and where we are today
It's definitely a more efficient way
To get music out

Because it's the whole idea behind
Having a festival that played
All sorts of music because no one listens to
Music like that - you just
Listen to music more
Than ever back in the days there used
To be hip-hop clubs like
Specific hip-hop clubs now every club is a
Hip-hop club every club is a
Music club you go in there, you're liable to
Hear EDM, hip-hop, you're gonna
Hear some soul
You’re definitely going to hear "Poison"
Around 2-3 in the morning
It's unfortunate because with, you know
Technology
And everything moving forward, we should
It should be a better way
That the music, the musicians, radio
And these things that
Are supposed to be instruments for the arts
Should exist and it
Shouldn’t be about advertisement and it
Shouldn't be about so the
More times, you know, someone like
Yourself can bypass that
It’s better for the
For the arts and it's better
For the audience 'cause you
Have to have, like
A level of discipline and just
A belief to put music out in this place
Where not everyone can

Frank: Right

Jay-Z: You know, people, like, they
Wanna shoot for that
And then they're making music that's
Not really conditioned who
They are so they can reach a certain platform
