...sold more than 20 million copies worldwide. You don't score numbers like that just from the middle-aged Beatlemaniacs still shaking their imaginary moptops. It requires massive sales to the teenagers and twentysomethings who buy most records. The phenomenon of that album followed the success of Santana's Supernatural, which paired a survivor of the '60s with up-to-the-minute acts like Lauryn Hill, Everlast and Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20. And before Santana, there was Aerosmith and Eric Clapton, Neil Young and Tina Turner, Sting and Cher, David Bowie and Bruce Springsteen. All of them sustained long...
...content. Napster had the potential to turn us into critics, but now we are going back to being simple consumers, willingly accepting whatever artists the music industry chooses to present to us. Or at least some of us are. Rubalcava may be excited at the prospect of downloading Santana and Christina Aguilera off his satellite phone, but as for myself and others who are less satisfied with the artists that the music industry chooses to promote, we will continue to scour the "unreliable nooks and crannies"of the internet, waiting for the true music revolution to happen.

...Napster's college-student users, this pact means several things. First of all, we can expect that sometime in the next few months, all Bertelsmann content (like Santana and Christina Aguilera) will be pulled from the free Napster service and moved to a premium service.

Everlast (born Erik Schrody) is already well known as the writer of the Santana hit Put Your Lights On. Hip-hop followers probably remember him from the 1990s as the frontman of the proudly uncouth, roughneck trio House of Pain. After four years with that group, he quit, dropped out of music, changed gears and then scored a surprise hit with his 1998 solo debut, Whitey Ford Sings the Blues. That record broke all the rules, using acoustic guitars, rapping, blues riffs and elements borrowed from Johnny Cash and Neil Young to create a striking hip-hop offshoot that sounded...
...country. He was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, but raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Newark, N.J. He's a rapper and a singer, an entertainer with an ear to the streets and an eye on the top of the charts. He has written and produced hits for Santana and Whitney Houston and has also worked with Destiny's Child and Sinead O'Connor. "He's like a chameleon," says Melky Jean, Wyclef's sister and frequent supporting vocalist. "He can adapt from rap to pop to country because, growing up, that's what he used to listen...
