At first glance, there does not seem to be much of a commonality between the two dominant musical genres of our time, hip hop and indie rock. However, many artists have brought indie rocks financial lessons,namely that one can survive and thrive without a label and be true to your artistic self, and have created great art from it. El-Producto, for example, is not just an MC but also owns his own record label, and has released Cannibal Ox and Aesop Rock. http://www.indi-hop.com
