I been watching and hearing alot about these mixtapes hitting the streets but most of them end up being a bunch of shit.
Yet they are now being sold to make a quick buck, they used to be free. All these artist can be taking the time to work on they're albums and come with something concrete & legit and sell they're album's at the same price as a mixtape. Which would you rather buy?
I understand it's a hustle, but the game is losing it's touch with all these mixtapes
Everybody is out there doing mixtapes the game is flooded with them and in reality nobody really shines since they're are so many rappers doing them.
Okay, the east cost did it and some artist have been discovered by them mixtapes, but that was back in the day: there were not that many rappers in the game.
Too many rappers out there charging outragous prices for 16 bars, shit Tupac was charging for 16 bars back when he did Strickly For My N.I.G.G.A.Z and was on a major label and still consittered underground, most of these rappers today have aboout a 100 mile range of being heard and did a few songs with some rappers that grazed in the game then turn and charge an outragous price for a verse, thinking they are major or about to blow up.
Reality is, we are years behind of what the game was. Everybody heard how rappers from the Bay were getting they're hustle on, but they were only a chosen few and one out of these few shined and stood out, but now: there are too many that most people don't even bother with it.
The rap game is like when master p first came out, he put out quality shit, after that he tried to do too much and began to put out quantity not quality shit.
your opinion?
