As if there are not enough problems in this world, to is owed a downtown building that houses Hot 97, filed suit yesterday to evict a radio station after a series of violent episodes involving high profile rappers and their entourages. Now if this was one event after another, week after week. Most would see the problem and agree. Unfortunately, this is not the case and just like any other place, and that is high profile, There can be problems for security. According to Brian O'Dwyer, a lawyer representing the district council of Carpenters benefits phones, which owns the building at 395 Hudson St, "Hot 97 is a public and private nuisance to the people of New York!" This lawsuit, filed in New York Supreme Court also seeks to use it to also remove other stations owned by a Emmis broadcasting Corp. from the building. The other two popular stations, which are Kiss FM (107.9), and That Jazzy CD 10 1.9, the Oldies Station. But what do they had in common, owners or otherwise they would not even be named in a suit. Even if we stopped for a minute and said that rap is bad, is been around for more than 20 years. Even though it has had some bad times, there have been some great things and people who have come out of it. Hip-hop utilizes real-life trauma, wishful thinking, in the art of rhyming to a pulsing beat. A rhythmic beat, one, that is soulful and sort of jazzy. |
This just comes down to one thing, free
inspection, free ideas, and how others try to force their will upon the
masses. It was no problem to take the money from an emerging company
like Emmis Broadcasting. The buildings owners neither like the fact
that their children are listening to the station and shaking their asses,
and the fact that some of the on air staff, is of color. The fact
that the artists, performers and their entourages are of color, is it any
wonder to each and every one of us. What is in question? Each in a written statement released on Tuesday the second of May, a spokesperson for how many seven, said that there was no legal basis for eviction, and vowed to fight the suit. It has been a question of time with the owners who have made the station have more security and other measures. In the past five years to have been three shootings at or near the station. The seem to be the basis for the building and taking such actions. The most recent came last week when rapper Jamaal "Gravy" Woolard, was shot and wounded before a scheduled interview. The air is getting tense, for even Miss Kimberly Jones is doing time for a event that happened outside of the station. The building longed to hold a station accountable for people that are not in their employ, or a subsidiary of. The actions of a few do not demand for this type of harassment by the Building owners. |
