Exactly, and as long as artists who are as talented as Michael Carpenter are
recording and releasing records, I'm going to be buying them. But I don't
mean to heap all the blame on the artists, either--I think the labels are as
much a part of the equation--if not more--and it seems that one of the major
problems is that albums get shelved to wait for the right spot in a promotional
cycle. Obviously you want to maximize your exposure each time out, but
there's definitely a limit to how long this should wait. It's nice that there are
labels like NotLame and artists like MC who do break this mold. --Jason
