A band that betrays their original purpose for making music in order to make more money. MTV happens to be the cause of most sell outs, making bands worry about their music videos and wether or not they can get them on MTV. A sell out band has to have 3 things happened.
1.)Complete change in style of music
2.)Aired on MTV every day
3.)ALL ABOUT THE MONEY

Tyson...the fool blew about $2 million on pet tigers when he could have paid for someone's college education.

for instance, jessica simpson- she says that she would never go on a low-carb diet and loves her curves, yet is shown on the cover of us weekly with a bikini showing her ribs. she says she promotes loving her body but does the opposite
