New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Kevin Mattson about the rise of MTV and the corporatization of the music industry in 1980’s America. A Professor of History at Ohio University, Kevin reminds us of the underground production and distribution of music at the time and what was lost between the artist and listener relationship with the introduction of MTV.
