Ep.28 - Genres, Toxic Fanbases & NFTs

On Ep.28 of ISOS: Genres becoming more & more blurred; toxic fanbases and the artist's duty; and NFTs is making its way into Hip-Hop.
On this episode of ISOS: Miki introduces a piece on Genre and how the litany of subgenres and the loose lines between them all are starting to blur the more mainstream genre labels. Ryan brings in a piece on fanbases and how their propensity to be toxic lives as long as the artist who 'leads' those fanbases say nothing about it. And lastly, Jashima, making her hosting debut, drops a newsletter centred around NFTs & the potential for Hip-Hop's use of the booming format.
