Mixtape, Inc. is an in-depth, unprecedented behind-the-scenes look into the gritty world of illegal hop-hop mix tapes. There’s a battle brewing with the mixtape DJs, performers, retailers, and buyers on one side, and the multi-billion dollar record labels and copyright infringement authorities (RIAA) on the other. It’s a love/hate relationship and some have paid the price — jail, fines and more. Yet, mixtapes have become an important, even integral, part of the hip-hop culture, revolutionized the hip-hop music industry and changed the way we hear and buy hip-hop music. The financial stakes are extremely high. These entrepreneurial compilations are now the root of a new power struggle between the urban streets and the traditional corporate music industry. This documentary will take you inside the riveting, unflinching dramas of this volcanic battle.
