    Spin Magazine December 2008 - Jackson Main, Kavita Gil, Jessie Crowe - Cassie Ramone Interview
    Has there been a more cool and original artist in the past 20 years than M.I.A.? It's debatable but, we don't think so. We go deep on an M.I.A. cover story and the biggest year of her career.  PLUS! Cassie Ramone lead singer and guitarist of Vivian Girls joins Jackson in conversation about their feature in this issue and the explosive year in her career that was 2008. We also dissect a "Is Sampling Dead?" feature, as we discover this article was a major prediction for the future. And the future is now.

    Can Rick Rubin save the music industry? That's the title of the cover story. Did his idea of creating a subscription service platform ever actually become a reality? Or was it ignored until streaming platforms like Spotify appeared and proved him right? Well sort of right, artists still aren't getting paid for streams...
