Same. The OP article is interesting, but was hoping for more than a few wiki links of past instances. Is there more verifiable evidence for this instance? Don’t doubt the claim, just curious.

Absolutely agree. I’d argue Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious is one of the greatest albums of all time. And that came out in 2002, eight years after Illmatic. Blazing Arrow is such a seamless and well thought out album from start to finish. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazing_Arrow

The article mentions “Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment”. https://www.alliance4creativity.com/

Looks like a group that takes down piracy websites.

I assume MPA refers to “The Motion Picture Association”. They keep changing their name: “The MPA, originally called the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)”, then abbreviated to MPA.

Just clarifying the abbreviations since it isn’t really explained/articulated in the article.

A bit misleading but yes, 1000km is what they are talking about. Also the article doesn’t address scalability.

Voyager is very similar to RIF. I’d recommend it highly.
