The act of changing yourself, your intrests, or everything about you to fit the majority. This can be applied to alot of things. Such as a good friend leaving you out to dry for personnal gains, or a music group changing their own style to sell records.

To abandon what is really you just so you can be "cool" in the eyes of everyone else.
My friends (sell outs): Hey lets go dress up in pink Polos and short khaki shorts and sperries and spend all our money on crown royal and take Daddy's BMW and go hang out with all those real rich preppy kids from school so we can be awesome and just maybe get laid from a couple of town bikes

Me: Have fun

v. 1. The greatest atrocity of our generation.

2. The favorite activity of 99.9% of the modern no-talent rock/pop stars.

Just want to make it clear tat because an artist's song is used in a commercial (like Back in Black}in that shitastic gap jean ad) doesn't mean the band has a soldout. The record company often owns the rights to the song and gives the Advertising Agency the right to use it.
The Gap Sucks!

Sellouts Suck!

What envious underachievers call artists, writers, actors, or musicians when they no longer conform to their expectations.
Band X changed instead of staying exactly the same. They're sell outs!
