green-label.com has compiled a list of the Top 3 ways in which social media and technology have changed Hip Hop and popular music.
“Technology has had a tremendous impact on music,” the site says. “We went from 8-track tapes to being able to purchase and download a digital album in just a matter of seconds. However, technology’s effect on music has been far greater than just a new method of delivery to your earbuds. The musical revolution is here, and we’re all in it.”
green-label.com says that cross-branding and distribution have had a major affect on Hip Hop.
