Also make sure to be clear of your OWN definition of success...Don't let others define success FOR you. Know what YOU want out of it and go for it, but keep in mind that many times there are no real tangible ways of measuring success in this business.

Here is an OLD article written by journalist "Jamie Lee Rake" that documents the very beginnings of hip-hop in Milwaukee, WI in the (80's) era and of course
"BREAKIN' ALL RECORDS". I'm told it was originally published in the UNITED KINGDOM in 1989 in a magazine called "SOUL UNDERGROUND"....Testimony to the fact that "BREAKIN' ALL RECORDS" has been around a long time!
