The Million DJ March Impacts Capitol Hill In Washington, DC w/ The Untouchable
DJ Drastic & DJs Worldwide!
The Million DJ March is set to impact Capitol Hill in Washington, DC on August
30th, 2008. The event?s organizers (A. Shaw and company) have structured strong
alliances and professional affiliations with DJs such as The Untouchable DJ
Drastic, Green Lantern, and many more. DJ collectives from around the globe are
also at the forefront of this monumental event. Collectives such as The
BumSquad DJz, The Coalition Network, The Core DJs, and many more have signed on
to participate in the event and movement as official affiliates.
The Million DJ March is structured to assist the growth and preservation of
culture amongst the DJ community and business. As a whole, the DJ is often the
most underappreciated aspect of the entertainment business. Since the 70?s, the
DJ has always been perceived as underground. As we fast forward to 2008, the
music business has changed dramatically for artists and DJs alike. Technology
has made what was once a passion for music within an individual; a frequent
trend for attention amongst large amounts of society. Only professional DJs
know the pros and cons of the business. While a majority of professional DJs
are able to earn income from a career in the music business, very few have
medical benefits and often face challenges to maintain their positions.
The Untouchable DJ Drastic is a key initiator amongst The Million DJ March. In
an internet clip that surfaced on the World Wide Web, The Untouchable DJ
Drastic stated, ?For every artist that is successful there?s been the first DJ
that broke their record and the DJs that have carried them throughout their
careers through good times and bad. The R.I.A.A. wants to come down on DJs for
mix tapes and things of that nature. The DJ has always helped the artist and a
lot of the artists get the recognition all the time. It?s just different things
that we want to structure for the DJs because we are the true tastemakers
within the music industry.?
In correspondence with this release, The Untouchable DJ Drastic further
stated, ?The music business is suffering as a result of piracy and over
saturation. DJs need to come together and strive for change. Why is there no
category for the DJ at the Grammy Awards? Why is the R.I.A.A. coming down on
DJs for mix tapes? If it wasn?t for DJs, no music would ever reach the public.
We?re the ones that first told you about these artists! We need to structure a
trade labor union for DJs so that we can comfortably provide for our families
as with any other profession. Most DJs don?t even have medical benefits. This
is a problem. Artists and record labels are making anywhere from thousands to
millions of dollars off the work of DJs. Most DJs will never see reparation.
Record labels need to look to hire more reputable DJs to handle their tasks.
After all, DJs are the ones that have the ties to the mass public. I speak on
behalf of the DJ community in hopes that that the music industry can continue
to be productive and profitable for all of us. We all need to help each other
in many ways. Piracy is an epidemic but it?s only part of the problem. DJs also
need to take a stand financially as far as a minimum pay rate that is accepted
to perform on any occasion. All these issues will be addressed but change takes
time. Help take the first step towards change amongst the DJ community. We need
to solidify our future before someone else does it for us!?
The Million DJ March?s events will take place in Washington DC on August 29th,
2008 with the official rally taking place at the Capitol Building on August
30th, 2008. All DJs are asked to register online at www.MillionDJMarch.com
