"Industry" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 31/5/2016

So EXACTLY ... WHAT ... !?!
Is The ... " INDUSTRY " ... ?
 
A Place For Sheep To BLEAT ... !!!!!
Or Somewhere For The Weak ...
To CLAIM That They Sound Sweet ...
 
REAL ART Is RARELY Seen ...
Within The ... Industry ... !!!!!
 
Because of These Sheep ...
Who Choose To Be Meek ...
 
So Therefore DO NOT Speak ...
On How They're MADE TO BE ... !!!
 
PUPPETS Like The Muppets ...
Who Act Like ... Crabs In Buckets ... !!!!!
 
While Those Who Choose ...
To Speak The ... TRUTH ...
Are Seen As Crews  
Who CAN'T BE Used ... ?!?
 
I Guess Because ... ???
They WON'T BE USED ... !!!
 
To ... " Play The FOOL " ...
When They've Been Schooled ... !!!
 
The TRUTH Is It's ... " EXCLUSIVE " ...
To Be Someone Whose Music ...
 
Gets To Be ... " INCLUDED " ...
In Being Seen As GROOVING ... !!!
 
They're Seen As Being ... " Artists " ...
When They HIT Profit Margins ... !!!
 
When All They've Done Is BARGAIN ...
To Get Their Music Charted ...  
 
Producers TOO Be ... " Cooling' " ....
On Artistry That's Movements ...
Are Challenging And Prudent ...
 
They'd Rather Be Producing ...
For Music That's Recouping ...
BIG BUCKS For Sounding STUPID ... !!!!!
 
And Artists Who Be Choosing ...  
To Do Music That's Proving ...
That Artistry IS ... LOSING ... !!!!!
 
It's Really Quite INCREDIBLE ... !!!
What They'll Do Cos' It's ... " SELLABLE " ... !!!!!
 
Setting Up Their Schedule ...
To Work On Instrumentals ...
That CLEARLY EARN Them Medals ... !!!
 
For Stooping To ...  
... "low levels" ... !?!
 
And Nowadays The ... " Lyrical " ...
Is Seen As Being ......................... Dismissible .......
 
Because It's CLEARLY NOT ...
What THE INDUSTRY Wants ... !!!
 
So This Verse HERE Is CRITICAL ...
To The Industry's ... UMBILICAL ... !!!!!
 
Because It's Chord ...  
DOES NOT Enforce ... !!!!
 
Those Whose .... " CREATIVITY's " ....  
Made To FEED The ... INDUSTRY ...
 
If Your Art's Made For WEALTH ...  
You NEED TO ... CHECK Yourself ... !!!
 
And RECOGNISE THE HELL ...
That Comes For Souls Who SELL ... !!!
 
The DEVIL Has Lived WELL ... !!!
Off ... INDUSTRY Type Smells ... !!!!
 
So Those Who NOW COMPLAIN ...
About The Game ... TODAY ...
Should RECOGNISE THEIR PLACE ...
UPON The ... " Wall of SHAME " ... !!!
 
BEFORE Saying What They Say ... !!!!!
Because THE ROLE They've PLAYED ...
 
Has Shown How They've ENSLAVED ...
The ARTISTRY ... They CLAIM ... !!!!!
 
To Be Their ... INSPIRATION ...
For Making Their CREATIONS ...
 
If MONEY Is Your PRICE ... ?
For ... DEVOTING Your Time ...
To Creating Art That's FINE ...
And UNIQUE By Design ...
 
Then RECOGNISE The Line ...
That You CROSS EVERY TIME ...  
You CHOOSE To Make The Music ...  
That You Say ... KEEPS POLLUTING ...
Our NEW ... CREATIVE Minds ... !!!!!
 
I'm Gonna Say That TWICE ... !!!!!
 
If Money Is Your PRICE ... ?
For ... DEVOTING Your Time ...
To Creating Art That's FINE ...
and UNIQUE By Design ...
 
Then RECOGNISE The Line ...
That You CROSS EVERY TIME ...  
You CHOOSE To Make The Music ...  
That You Say KEEPS POLLUTING ...
Our NEW ... CREATIVE Minds ... !!!!!
 
When YOU KEEP Contributing ...
To ART That Should Be ... "MUTED" ... !!!
 
And RUN AWAY From Movements ...
Where Art DEFINES IMPROVEMENTS ... !!!!!
Because of What It ... CHOOSES ... !!!
 
To Deal In MORE THAN LOOSENESS ... !!!
 
And Artistry That's ...  " Coolness " ...
Comes From Being ... TOOTHLESS ... ?!!!?
 
I Guess They'll Say THIS PIECE of ART ...
Comes From A Place That's WAY TOO DARK .... !!!
 
So WON'T Get A PASS ...
To CLIMB UP The Charts ... !!!
And ... SHINE Like A STAR ....
 
"Okay, Blah DI Blah !"
 
These INDUSTRY Farts ...
REALLY Make ME Laugh ... !!!!!!!!
 
But THESE WORDS Impart ...
REAL VERSE That ... PIERCES ...  
Through THEM And Weak Hearts ... !!!
 
From Producers To Rappers ...
To ... Singers And Actors ...
 
One Day You'll NEED Answers ...
For ... What You Have Done ... !!!
 
DON'T PLAY That You're Dumb ...
When It Comes To ... Your Stunts ...
 
WHO You Have ... "Worked With" ...
And WHO You Have .............. SHUNNED ... !!!
 
To Get Your Art NOTICED ... !!!
Because It LACKS DOPENESS' ... !!!
 
COMPROMISE ISN'T Cool ...  
If That's What You've USED ...
To Get Yourself ... INTO ...
 
A Game That's NOW RULED ...
By Art That Now PROVES ...
 
How Artists Have SOLD ...
TRUE Artistry ... short ... !!!!!!
 
And Have Made A NEW BREED ...
of Fans Who Now FEED ...
 
On Art That Is MADE ...
NOT FOR THEM But For Heads ...
Who Could REALLY CARE LESS ...
 
About ... REAL Artistry ... !!!!!
 
So ... As I've Now Said ...
If YOU'RE One of THEM ... ?
DON'T ... EVER COMPLAIN ... !!!
 
Cos' You Should Be ASHAMED .... !!!!
of ... " PLAYING The Game " ...
 
Where .....  
Artistry's Drained ...................................
 
For What's FAKE To GAIN FAME ... !!!
 
You're Just PROVING How Weak ...
That You ... TRULY BE ...
By Sowing THE SEEDS ...
 
That FEED The ....
 
...... " INDUSTRY " ......
