(The Fresh Xpress) — This past weekend was the BET Awards weekend and everybody was in a frenzy about what artists will win what category. This is was also the same weekend as the ASCAP awards. In case you’re not aware, ASCAP stands for The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). So it’s like the official association for songwriters. Many times you find yourself singing a song on the radio that’s a total banger, but you come up on a #epicfail when you can’t name who penned it. That’s kinda a subliminal shot for you to stop stealing music. When you buy the CD, you can go through the liner notes and find out who wrote your favorite song. It might surprise you on some records who penned what.
