B4MD tells the story of American music at this precarious moment. Filmakers Andrew Shapter and Joel Rasmussen traveled the country, hoping to understand why mainstream music seems so packaged and repetitive, and whether corporations really had the power to silence musical innovation. The answers they found on this journey are what makes B4MD both riveting and exciting.

The Youtube clip is from an interview with Branford Marsalis in the documentary film "Before The Music Dies". The whole thing is definitely worth seeing, if you have any interest in music or business. It's available for $3 as an indie download.
