"Rock," as middle agers define it
is dead; at best it has been marginalized into a category synonymous with "metal." The real power/news in popular music has been the ascendance of rap. UMG is the personification of success, these days, because they have placed the major forces in current music under their distribution umbrella. Puffy's BAD BOY ENTERTAINMENT, DEF JAM and ofcourse INTERSCOPE are the real forces in popular music. They are all RAP production companies. Take a look at the Billboard singles chart.

This is music that requires no big-time production. In fact rap mix tapes pride themselves in being street raw.
